I uploaded some book covers and they show up when I look at my bookshelf.  However, when I view my shelf from my public profile, which is the way other members view it, there is no cover photo, just the big blue box.  Why is that?

It seems that when people go to view my shelf they are unable to see what the book looks like even though I see it on my side.  How do I fix this?

None of the book covers I upload ever get put in the files. Should I even bother? I never see them once I've uploaded them.

Michelle are you using the Upload Book Covers  at the bottom of the page? If you try to add a book cover from the edit book data, it will not work.

Mona, can you send me ISBNs for the ones in question?

Michelle, have you received denial notices for the ones that do not show? I believe I remember sending you at least one, I dont know if I sent you others or not, just thinking I remembered seeing at least one from you that was denied.

Also, as Marie says, if you are uploading them using the book data page, they will not go up. You MUST use either the blue icon on the details page, or the link at the bottom of all pages. Let me know if you have been using these and have not recieved a rejection notice. Please include the ISBNs when writing.
