David Haynes | 65 comments I added my book to Goodreads about twenty minutes ago and it's still not registering??

How do I send my cover, the only place it's stored is on amazon and my hard drive?


message 602: by Catalina (new)

Catalina | 2066 comments The book is registered here: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

You can upload the cover you have on your hard disk in the profile images folder or you can use a site like flicker, tinypics etc

Stan Barker (madamstan) | 12 comments Further to #646 I've found a cover for http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33...

Could somebody please add: http://www.ifa.de/typo3temp/pics/c319...

It's an academic site so hopefully this will pass?

Thanks in advance

Hi Diane - see the reply to your comment in the other thread. Additionally, we cannot take any data directly from Amazon or another bookseller. Legal issues...

Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi | 7 comments Hi! Could someone please help me? My book is listed on Goodreads, but only has a green generic cover with the title and my name on it. I would like to have the actual cover uploaded but can't seem to be able to do it myself. The book is entitled Broken Road and my name is Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi. Book page details are as follows:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

Also, for some reason, I'm not able to cut and paste the actual book cover photo, so I will attach the link to amazon.com where the book is available for purchase. Thank you so very much!

Or from any other bookseller. Elizabeth, do you have the cover on a blog, an author site?


message 612: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi | 7 comments Thanks J! Hope this works. Cutting and pasting of the actual photo isn't working. I'm not able to get it to paste in the comment box. I don't know why. I've cut and pasted the photo to many other locations, but it just won't take here.

J. (balcacer) | 169 comments Elizabeth, try photo copy it or scan it,we'll do the rest.


message 615: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi | 7 comments J, the problem is that I'm not able to "paste" the photo into this comment box. I did try scanning it and then copying and pasting it over, but once again, it wouldn't take the pasting. There doesn't seem to be a way of uploading it, unless I'm not seeing it. Any advice?


message 616: by J. (new)

J. (balcacer) | 169 comments How about a blog? Try to make a blog and from there, it's down hill job. Cheers !


message 617: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi | 7 comments I don't have a blog nor do I have a website yet (under construction!). Boy, I know I'm making this difficult. So sorry! There must be a way! I have faith in you J! I know you can figure this out. :-)

We solved Elizabeth's problem by having her email me her image and then I uploaded it. A happily-ever-after story.

David Haynes | 65 comments Hi, could someone change the cover on my book please. The book has got a new cover and is on the additional photos page.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

Thank you

J. (balcacer) | 169 comments Not much, Monday mornings is slow in a medium size town, while patients come, the traffic is stronger in the afternoon.

David,

As Rivka, our wonderful and patient volunteer coordinator, keeps telling us: You can't change the cover. Is this a new edition? We van create a new edition and then you, as author, can decide which comes first.


message 624: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi | 7 comments Thanks so much!! Very happy and relieved to finally see my book cover where it belongs! Thanks again!


message 625: by David (new)

David Haynes | 65 comments No, it's currently having an edit and I wanted to release it with a new cover. Oh well.


message 626: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

That's fine, but we'll need to create an alternate-cover edition for the new cover. See http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/85...

Just to clarify David,

If the book is undergoing a "major edit", is the result not going to be a new edition? Excuse my ignorance of the book trade. I'll be happy to make changes when I'm clear on this.


message 628: by David (new)

David Haynes | 65 comments Err... Yes I suppose it is! The book had the new cover on Amazon since November. I'll come back to you when the edit is completed. Thanks for your help.

Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi | 7 comments Hi! Sorry to ask a question that is not related to adding book covers (that question was taken care of for me yesterday. Thanks again!). My question today is, how can I remove a star rating that I accidentally gave myself? I was trying to figure out how edit my author profile page and I gave my book a 5 Star rating (well, wouldn't you??! LOL!)and now it doesn't go away. I clicked on "clear rating" and the rating disappears at that point, but when I check later on, the 5 star rating is still there. Plus, I had my friend check through her account, and it is there also. Please help. I feel stupid and people won't take the book seriously when they see that the author gave herself 5 stars! The book is entitled Broken Road and my name is Elizabeth Yu-Gesualdi.

Steven Cole (nakedsteve) | 7 comments The book The Secretist: Return to Ravnica: Part Two has a cover at http://media.wizards.com/images/magic... ...

Also, the proper title seems to be "Gatecrash: The Secretist, Part 2". (See http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine...)

Hi again Elizabeth,

I believe that you are changing the star rating and not saving. Go into edit on Review and change your rating. Then go down to the bottom of the box and press Save. easy.

Paul Maurer (paul1666) | 2 comments Hi,

I just added my new cover as a "photo" for TOUCHED ASIN B00AR3GJIM . How do I get the old one deleted and the new one added?

Thanks,
