that's like saying "most of my stuff I have to re-rip, the example rips I did way back when I did as flac" ;)

Although of course, if you're planning to stay for 3 hours adding cover art, then it works :D

I just uploaded a cover art and the art it replaced was squished horizontally
2012-05-01 12212, 2012
5:13 AM
ianweller
where was it from? amazon?
2012-05-01 12218, 2012

i think amazon requires their cover art to be square
2012-05-01 12222, 2012

I haven't been cropping medium scans, but it does look a bit ugly
2012-05-01 12220, 2012

ianmcorvidae
not sure how much that can really be improved
2012-05-01 12238, 2012
5:23 AM

i think the purpose of the media scan is to have a reference of what it looked like, not something you can recreate from or whatever
2012-05-01 12249, 2012
5:23 AM
hawke_1
I agree
2012-05-01 12257, 2012
5:23 AM
ianweller
i always kind of thought the purpose of having all these different kinds of cover art was to have more evidence readily accessible for making edits
2012-05-01 12234, 2012
5:24 AM
hawke_1
I would think that and clarity of different releases
2012-05-01 12235, 2012
5:24 AM
reosarevok
That and documenting "this is how it looked like"
2012-05-01 12242, 2012

as in “See? My release really is different”
2012-05-01 12258, 2012

2012-05-01 12220, 2012

front, medium, back, inner covers, spine, booklet?
2012-05-01 12252, 2012

if anything, i'd do it in order from front to back
2012-05-01 12212, 2012

2012-05-01 12210, 2012

but that's just me with an opinion made up on the spot

on 'front' being first we do ;)
2012-05-01 12211, 2012
5:32 AM

really my ordering was pretty much arbitrary; until there's style guidelines I think it's just gonna be "whatever sorta makes sense"
2012-05-01 12227, 2012
5:32 AM
hawke_1
Front to back, mine would be front, booklet, inner cover, inner cover, medium, back, spine. I guess.
2012-05-01 12229, 2012
5:32 AM
ianmcorvidae
which probably amounts to "put front first" + "keep booklets in order" and really nothing else :P
2012-05-01 12250, 2012

at least for the release I’m working on
2012-05-01 12210, 2012

How about comments. I’m putting “page x” for the booklets
2012-05-01 12218, 2012
5:35 AM
ianmcorvidae
yeah, I've been doing that
2012-05-01 12229, 2012
5:35 AM
ianmcorvidae
there's a question of whether the front cover is page 1 or whether the next page after that is though
2012-05-01 12232, 2012
5:35 AM
hawke_1
and a general description like “inner cover left” for any "other" ones
2012-05-01 12245, 2012
5:35 AM
ianmcorvidae
(I've been doing e.g. front, page 1-10, back)
2012-05-01 12250, 2012
5:35 AM
hawke_1
ianmcorvidae: I would say follow book format
2012-05-01 12259, 2012

ianmcorvidae
I'm not sure what you mean by that :P
2012-05-01 12222, 2012

odd pages on the right
2012-05-01 12226, 2012
5:36 AM
hawke_1
so cover page 1
2012-05-01 12237, 2012

ianmcorvidae
ah
2012-05-01 12240, 2012

so not what I'm doing :P
2012-05-01 12256, 2012

we'll need to develop style eventually, is what it really comes down to
2012-05-01 12258, 2012
5:36 AM
hawke_1
or 'cover', 'inner cover left', 'page x…' 'inner cover right' 'back'
2012-05-01 12205, 2012
5:37 AM
hawke_1
ianmcorvidae: Exactly. :-)
2012-05-01 12223, 2012

we also need more types
2012-05-01 12225, 2012

2012-05-01 12201, 2012

mine was odd though, the PDF was made to have 2 pages per "page" and i was too lazy to split
2012-05-01 12251, 2012

dunno if i should fix that tomorrow (cancel, split, reupload)
2012-05-01 12256, 2012

sometimes 2 pages in one image is better, if it's an image that spreads across two pages

wow, reordering is a pain in the ass
2012-05-01 12209, 2012

this release I'm uploading now I actually scanned the two booklets (yes, it has two) differently
2012-05-01 12229, 2012

because one had images across spreads, the other had discrete pages
