| | Posted: | | | | First, I'm not asking how it should be done for the online (I know that)
What I am asking is, What image do people keep in their local database for the child profiles of box sets that would normally share the parent profiles image.
to expand on the poll choices, if you take the same as the parent, yet the child profile is the same profile for the single release but the box doesn't actually have the seperate case, do you just keep the images that came with the profile or change it to the same as the parent |

| | Posted: | | | | I'm too lazy to track anything else down, so I just keep the artwork from the parent profiles. Plus I don't print reports and use the old fashioned list view of my collection. So I don't see the artwork often enough to really care. When I do look at the artwork, 99% of the time, it's the back cover to see some detail on it. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection. |

| | Posted: | | | | I agree with Mark for the same reasons - laziness and I don't really care that much about the artwork. If there are different images (from keepers or THINpak) I'll use 'em but otherwise what's the point.
Of course, most of my box sets are TV series so there really isn't much unique from one disc to another, unlike something like the Angel Collection Set (Angel, Avenging Angel, Angel III). | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)
Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges.

Once I toyed with the idea to use posters, but am too lazy to hunt them down  | | | Achim [諾亞信； Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan.
