This Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past label is categorized as a custom cover, when it's obviously not a cover, but a label that may or may not be custom (I don't have my copy of ALttP on me right now, and even if I did, it's not Brazillian).

... Read back a few posts. ALL Labels are listed as custom regardless if they truly are or not. It's just the way we have to add them to the site.

You can insert an advanced description (label) in the sub-field when adding a label as a custom cover though. Then it says custom cover on the left field but on the right individual cover section it says label as a description.

This must have been lost somewhere over time as many of the N64 labels are listed as "Label" or "Game Cart Label" on the left side.

Kind of like when we used to get a preview of a raw scan when hovering over the link (I miss that one).

Jup. In the old admining system we had a descriptor for lable which put itself in the left side and right beneath the cover preview thumb. It's different for now.

The preview thing in the raw section was deactivated because it produced massive bandwidth usage.

from this page: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=1657 the image is listed as Custom Cover should be Label (odd that it shows as Label when looking at the Retail Cover).

Actually a US citizen, but the US playstation id's look like crap :(

Seriously? Do you not read a few posts back when posting? ALL LABELS ARE LISTED AS CUSTOM COVERS! If we put a descriptor in for the cover name (ie: "label") then it is automatically listed as custom. It's just the way our system works.

No I didn't read the posts above right away, it just stood out to me because it was listed as a Label while viewing the other items on that page, but then changed to Custom Cover when going to that individual item. Might just be my opinion, but this probably should change because it can be confusing at a glance.

I have noticed that this is quite common here, that is not bother to read more than 1 or two posts back, or it might be that people read these topic without logging in, just questimating in which topics you can find new posts. And then when they realize that a topic contained new posts, the topic has gone on page or so, thus decreasing the probability of all posts to be read. This goes especially to the people who don't come here many times a day (SHAME ON YOU).

I read on some other topic that unless you do seriously better cover, meaning not just cleaning the excisting cover (or that just looks cleaned up original) the original creator still gets to keep the credit.

Jup that is right but badchads improvements were more than enough to warrant a change of name.
