labels/covers downloads cannot complete

i just click to make a download and before it ends the download stops with the image half ready, its just with me?

Be more specific.

1. Which cover are you downloading?
2. What do you mean exactly? I mean: when you download does the image show and then stops midway or download status bar shows that the download is complete but when you open the image is only half done.

well, thanks for answer me, here the download is complete but when you open the image is only half done. it happens to every image that a try to download from thecoverproject, sometimes the download completes successfully, but the majority of images ends with only the half done

Rarely does it, but try the cheaty way.

I use SNEs Joe & Mac 2: Lost in the Tropics as an example:

Right click on the thump of the cover you want to download, and choose copy address of the image (My Firefox is in Finnish, so I don't know the exact correct English option).
For this game the result is:

http://www.thecoverproject.net/images/covers/snes_joeandmac2_2_thumb.jpg

Remove _thumb part, so you end up with

http://www.thecoverproject.net/images/covers/snes_joeandmac2_2.jpg

Put that to your web browser's address line and hit enter.

When the image is fully loaded just save the image, and you end up with the cover.

When you click: http://www.thecoverproject.net/images/covers/snes_joeandmac2_2.jpg does the image load whole or does it stop appearing half way thru? For example when I press it it first loads blurry picture, then when waiting it becomes clearer and bit more waiting it does third "scan" becomes ready. So hit the linkk, wait until the page loading bar disappears, and see is the picture ready.

Most of the time when you try and download 348921 covers at once, you will lose connection between a cover or 348921 (-1) of them.  Try downloading 1 cover at a time to ensure the WHOLE cover is downloaded, and not a loss of connection

I doubt that's the issue, but if it helps I know someone from South Africa I could ask to attempt to download something.
