Yep after super stricct screening, so don't discorage if your creation does not appear to the site, just finetune it more and try again.

I've uploaded a few super hi-res scans of original cover art for some Wii games and they are not yet appearing. Any suggestions?

It takes time. There are a few individuals that have the ability to filter through the submissions and post covers. For the most part, the covers are made available via forum.

I understand. I prefer to use the console links rather then searching the forums. I guess I'll just wait. The site is very light on current and last generation covers. I get them from other sites frequently to print in my store and thought i would upload them hear to help the site.

There are only 1-2 people that approve covers, so give it some time ;)

You'll have to first prove yourself quality wise.

So like I said in the other topic:

Quote
1: The quality standarts are high.
2: Only few Cover Admins have power to check them.
3: Only few Cover Admins have power to add them.
4: They are buzy.
5: They do it on their free time.

I'd suggest making Mediafire or box account, uploading there and then linking them to the boards so we all can see them and give pointers why they were not accepted, or is it just case of 2-5.


And actually I believe there are 5 that have the power, each specializing on different platforms.

I understand, and i was half-joking about me being another admin.

However, i wouldn't upload anything that i wasn't comfortable having on my store shelf

Let me put it other way:

Our quality standarts are ridiculously strick on purpose as we strive for absolute perfection.
Many covers that are perfectly suitable for store display still fall way under our current standarts.

Quality should match at least original, preferably superseed it.
