Nadine, that's a great job you're doing here! :clap:

btw, we're now adding to cover page 3 - just in case you get there before we start a new one, you may want to m4bi'fy those books starting from the bottom... :D
Cheers, Ava.

i have a question for you: does anyone have a kind of spreadsheet or something that I could access easily so I could see which books have a cover, so I can make the corresponding M4B files? I used to try and follow this thread, but now I've started making some M4B of the German books and it looks stupid if there are only 5, so I'm focusing on that. The whole think would be much faster if I had a list of books that have a cover already. I know, there are the archive pages, but a spreadsheet would go faster and I could mark it as to whether the M4B is already done or not. And I now know that Anne has such a spreadsheet for the M4B library so I thought it would not hurt to ask...
:D
It is fairly clunky
But - you can highlight the archive page (just the part with the covers - using select all .... - well selects all the page :D )
Then you can copy and paste into something like notepad and you have a list - you could probably make it look better by various fiddling - but you get a list

Here comes the annoying me again: on page 1 of your archive collection:

http://librivox.org/around-the-world-in-eighty-days-by-jules-verne/ this has a link from the archive page but the cover does not show on the catalogue page

The Beetle by Richard Marsh: the cover art cannot be downloaded (not sure if it is a broken link or a problem at archive)-

Not annoying at all :D

The version of Around the World you linked to has no cover yet.
I made one but for what ever reason it never made it to Archive and into the catalog. (Will finish it some time soon.)
The picture was for another version. We have 4 or 5. The Archive page link goes now to the correct catalog page.

The cover art for The Beetle has disappeared or never was there. I picked it from the pdf and uploaded it.

It's great that you do this "revision" of the covers!
