about "Box Full" images

[PaulStranger]

Hello everyone.

When importing game roms into your library, you go through a step of selecting image types (cartridge, front or back of box, or "box full" image, for example) that should be loaded from some external source when finalizing the import.

As far as I understand, this source should be the media content database, which is separately available at gamesdb.launchbox-app.com.

My question is specifically about the "full box" content. This definition usually means a full image of the entire cover from a game disc or from a plastic case of a game cartridge.

I have added a large number of games to my library that have a full cover from a disc or other box in the original, but none of the imported games had images downloaded that fall under the "full box" type.

In addition, I periodically upload high-quality media content to the gamesdb.launchbox-app.com database, and there, when choosing the type of imported image, the "full box" category is missing.

That is, in other words, it is impossible to upload a full image from a game box or disk to the database.

Then the question is - why is the "full box" image category added to the selection list when importing a game to the Launchbox library?

EmuMovies has them.  In which they could be uploaded there.

You can put in a feature request to add Box - Full to the list of available upload image types for the LaunchBox Games Database.
