But if you mix up inner and outer cover that's exactly what you get: A customized cover that in this way cannot be bought with any DVD available -> is incorrect.
We declined awesome scans, because the font had changed a bit in size and are now willingly accepting scans of cover-combinations that don't even exist.    
Sorry, but I'm failing to get the logical system behind this.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Hi!

I really prefer the complete second side (inside) of the Wendecover.
I think this is the real artwork.
EAN and UPC are only interesting for sellers to get them into their systems and for customers to know how the FSK ist thinking about the film and because it is law!
I think no artist likes these disfigurements of their work.

The cover it is sold with is obviously the default cover.

So we have to leave the packaging foil with (maybe) all the stickers on it for scanning

I am missing a choice to use the inside cover, without the ratings logo, but with the EAN which can be on the inside as well as the outside.
I recently contributed such a cover and it was accepted.

So who's taking care of me?

So this would be B, C or D.

Sorry missed to add the option "Just use inside cover if back cover is same as back on outside cover" Think you meant this?

You're absolutely right. But as I understood, Ken allowed to use the front Wendecover, because many users where abused about the big logo, so this is why just taking front from inside also is a (good) possibility.
I don't think this is perfect for a absolutely correct database and it can't be bought like this.
But the possibility was given to us users and our eyes  , because we wanted it. If a Wendecover is provided with the DVD, why not using it, if we want?

Sorry, please no political discussion!         

Hmm, I'm married and still no-one is taking care of me.

I agree to that. We have too many options in favor of the inside cover to choose from. Now we have a clear lead for the outside cover and only if you add-up the votes for options B - E the inside cover is still in front. The choice should be between inside and outside only. I have the sinking feeling that the outcome of this poll here will be the outside cover. Buttugly but hey it is like in the shops! Some people also like their homes to look like showrooms in a Möbelhaus.

Yep. And that is a total contrast to the poll in the German Profiler Forum. So what to do now?
