How to Add or Change Cover Art
This page describes how to add or change the cover art pictures for releases. This can be done using the AdvancedRelationshipType "Has Amazon ASIN".
On the designated release page there should be a link with Relate to URL . Click this and you should be taken the page where you can enter an URL
In the pull-down menu under the header links to affiliates you will find the special link has amazon asin
Be sure to add the urls to the appropriate country's amazon stores:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/##########
for UShttp://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/##########
for Germanhttp://www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/ASIN/##########
for Japanese andhttp://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/##########
for UK etc.
where ######### is the 10 digit ASIN code. You should remove the part of the URL that comes after the ASIN. For example, the URL http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000B837XI/ref=amb_link_471952_1/102-9302645-8900104?n=130
should be shortened to http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000B837XI
.
Also make sure you don't add URLs to products that are only sold by custom sellers (those that don't have an Amazon price).
Finally, be careful to add the right ASIN to the right release version. Don't add an ASIN that links to a version with bonus tracks to a release in MB that doesn't have them.
