At least the rule should specify what to do in that case!
As a matter of fact I have not broken the rule because this specific case is not mentioned 

This case may not be mentioned, but the rule is quite clear, all scans must be of the front and back of the box that the discs came in.  There is no provision for scanning the actual discs so, yes, you are breaking the rule.

When was the other boxset released? I know the boxset I have personally came out WAY before the Egg set. The set I have was out in June of 1999.

And either way... don't make the scans of the actual discs right. You use the boxset images if there is no individual cases.

Which is why I asked...

When I said when my set was released I was trying to say you have to be careful and be sure which came first.

So with those dates then per Rules the child profiles for online should have the images of the parent profile of the Egg box. Unless each disc has it's own case inside the egg box then you could use scans of the individual cases.

No you couldn't it isn't an individual case... from what you describe it is a digipak. Per rules that is the parent profile. And not all agree the rule should change. I for one prefer the rule as it is now. And do know others that feel the same way.

You can do whatever you want in your local DB.  The online DB, however, is subject to rules and community consensus.  I don't know it can be any clearer than that.

Like Pete said. AAnd BTW, especially when dealing with lots of consumersw, the individual consumer is NOT always right, even if he thinks he is.. What you choose to do locally is your business, what you want to Contribute you follow the Rules. Very simple.

Back before there was a rule I used to scan the booklets and they were always approved. I think many of them are still in the database, but don't tell anyone...

This is why I suggested a poll... If you pay attention at what I said, I was speaking about most of users not just me
And remember, I was referring to a very particular case: two boxes including the same disk set and the first came out is very "showy", actually an Alien's Egg 
This means that the conventional box would inherit that image for the discs within. A "normal" box includes "egg" box? 
I don't like to be insistent but a sentence like "Very simple" is not very pleasant
I'm not so stupid to think that if I don't like a rule they MUST change! I was saying that if it is something that many users don't like, a change could be suggested to Invelos people. That's all!
As you can see, other users like Ace_of_Sevens would support changes like scanning digipack section so a kind of flexibility seems to be welcome.
Strict rules not always are the best 
I know that I can always put any image in my collection... it is a matter of principle... IMHO the database should be consistent.
