how to change the default image type for custom images?

Hello :)

By default when you add a custom artwork to a game the image-type is "Box-front", but many of the pictures I add are gameplay, therefore I need to change the image-type to many of the pictures. 

So my question is - is it possible to change the default image-type to "Gameplay" or something else when I add a custom artwork?

If it's possible how can I do it? else, please suggest me a good way to add a custom artwork.

If you are adding the image via the game edit screens in LB then you cannot change that LB typically defaults its initial selection to Box-Front. That is the way it is coded in the back end. If you do not want to do the click and choose option easiest way is simply name the image exactly as the game is named in LB and drop it in the correct image folder. LB will attach the image directly. If it does not show refresh the image cache.

Okay I understand, I'll try to batch rename the images and do as you said.
Thank you for the answer  :)
