Ah, I thought I remembered seeing you link to a website previously. Unfortunately, because it's not the publisher's website, we can't use it - the only bookseller websites that we're allowed to use are Amazon's (more info here).

Are you able to scan and upload a copy yourself?

Kaveh Rezaie (kaveh_wsx) | 50 comments You mean whole of my book? No, I can not. It's difficult!
But I can scan some pages of my book. Is it good?

just the cover, not the entire book :)

I suspect you took the pic from the bookseller and just uploaded in your profile, isn't it?!

I'm much happier to use this one as it looks like a genuine scan rather than being the same as the one on the website. So therefore, it's been added! :)

Kaveh Rezaie (kaveh_wsx) | 50 comments Thanks. It's a real scan of my own book.

message 121: by Nina (last edited Jun 01, 2014 05:22PM) (new)

Nina | 426 comments #122 added an alternate cover and combined it with the other version (This is done because as of now, it is not possible to upload multiple covers of a book, and because changing the cover of an existing edition is a violation of Goodreads policy)

However, as a Goodreads author, you can choose, in a few simple steps, which one you want as default. More info here: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

Carrie Lucas | 3 comments How do I get it to show up as the main one?

Nina | 426 comments Help Topic

How do I set the default edition for a work?
1) Navigate to the book's page. Be sure you have selected the edition you wish to become the default (primary) edition.

2) Click "edit details" below the book's description.

3) On the right side of the page, click "Set this book as the primary edition for this work". It's about midway down the page.

Only Goodreads Authors can set the default edition at this time.

Carrie Lucas | 3 comments Awesome done perfect thank you!

Z-squared | 8575 comments re 127, i couldn't figure out whether that website was an OK source for images or not, so I took the one from Amazon.

Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 6993 comments 136/137 Change reversed.
Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, as users want to shelve the cover of the copy they have. Instead, we add an alternate-cover edition. See https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... and https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/8....

Alternate cover edition added: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
The author can can set the default (that is the one that will come up in searches by title and show on the author profile) by following the instructions in this link: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

#139 - It really helps if you also link the Goodreads record. Hunting now to investigate. And fixed - was an import overwrite. Feed is set to not do it again now I've reverted it!

Z-squared | 8575 comments re 143, looks like there was a duplicate edition. i merged them (the kindle ed already had a cover), and i added the cover to the pb edition.
