HeyHo!

I was just wondering about a detail in the cover view pages. When I for example click on the Nintendo Wii cover section the newest covers are shown. Then I press the F letter e.g. and the covers with F are shown. Ok nice so far but then let's say the Wii Sports cover is shown plenty of times and every time I click on it it's the same covers in it.... I just understood now that there's always the actual cover marked when you open the special link but it's a little bit confusing too imho. I understand that for different languages there should be different links so anyone can see at once Ahhhh my region specific cover is there without opening the cover to look for it but if there are different covers from the same region do they really need an extra link? The lists would be more compact if there are less links....
Just my thoughts about this....

The newest covers are displayed, not the newest games. That being said, if I add 5 new covers for 1 game they are the 5 newest covers so they show up. If this is indeed overkill I can change it. Any other thoughts?

Same here. I like it the way it is. I guess it's a personal preference thing again :)

Hy again!

I'm sorry but because english is not my native language it is difficult for me to express what I mean. It's not the thing about new covers but about every cover.... There are 5 links for 5 different covers but these 5 covers are all on the same page no matter on which of the five links I click I end up on the same page... That was what I meant if I get to the same page no matter which link I click I could make one link instead of five... Clearer....?  ;D Not that easy to explain...

But it's not that important I was just curious if I didn't understand how it works...

Unless the link is on the covers recently added page, there shouldn't be multiple links to the same page. If there is, tell Snowcone with a reply in the thread below.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=307.0

Another thing you might be trying to say:(looking at your previous post)
You go to a page where Wii Play and Wii Sports are(just as an example) and you click on Wii Play, but it takes you to Wii Sports. If so, tell Snowcone.

When you say 5 links for 5 different covers, do you mean like this:
Wii Sports
Wii Play
Call of Duty 3
Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam
Rayman: Raving Rabbids

or like 5 different covers like this:
Wii Sports
Wii Sports
Wii Sports
Wii Sports
Wii Sports

tik, are you referring to a page like this: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=1335

That page has 8 covers for Wii Sports each by a different person. Clicking on each cover takes you to the page for that cover and allows you to download it.
