Title: Spine-card in cover and back scan? Yes or no
Post by: sharp on May 20, 2005, 02:16:49 PM
How do you prefer scans, with or without a spine card (if spine-card is available to scan)

Here an example of two the two japanese dc games one with and one without.

My self I prefer with, as it's part of the cover when someone buys a game brand new. But mybe it is a good idea to have a poll about it.

oh a few other scans-examples with spine-card

With spinecard. It looks a whole lot better. And it's not like there's anything of interest underneath it.

agreed. if you have the spine cards include them. it's a more complete representation of the game.

I agree to scan it with the spine card if possible.
Like Den said it is a more accurate representation of the game.

That is how it was originally sold after all.

Me too :)  I first voted I don't know since I read this post late at night and didn't really understand what a spine card was ;)  But now that I do, I also agree that they should be included in the scans when possible.

It wasn't about intrest, poit for me was I want a databse which has a common policy about scans, so that's why I asked the question.

Well if you have a copy with the Spine card cool.
If not the scan is still welcome. It can always be replaced later by a game with it.

I believe I have the spinecard for Super Runabout, so I'll try to re-do that scan.
