With a new upload of an audio book, it looks like another picture problem.
Aspect ratio looked ok when I grabbed it but looks way off again.  I still do not know how to make any preview.
Looks okay in my opinion.  Unless this is not the image u are talking about (can see it was edited by miok:_super_admin:) ?
Image error
I fixed the image.

I've made a new entry today and  Globe Theatre Shakespeares Merry Wives of Windsor (2010)  image looks better on the first try.  I used the method suggested of using a stock web image url.  But I also included the post shot in the torrent.

@miok

Thanks again for fixing the Theatre of War.  It got a good initial seed on TGx.

As Rod Serling used to say in The Twilight Zone,  "Submitted for your approval"  (wink omitted)

  A new image which looks ok to me but admins may have something better.  The image is
for a new torrent from DVD I'll put up tomorrow after checking:

I'd like to practice using a feature on the uploads showing an automatic image link from IMDb number.
Is that picked up from entering the tt######### and leaving the other box blank?

Please give a description.

To my question on IMDb links,  I found the method.   TGx grabs the image from the full url
link at top of the browser.  I did not try the tt########## only.  Good to know.

It seems you can use either (IMDB link or ID), which is helpful :)

And if you dont like the pic, u can update it..  using any of the countless other ways mentioned :D:D

Thanks for reply.  The thread continues.  I was just looking at more of the help files.  Hard to keep everything in mind.
I also found I could edit the entry for 'category' and not have to redo it.
