Glad you like it - I was lucky to find this image.

I guess with this cover there's no further confusion as to the contents?

Hey, Carthinius, the cover you made for Little Men, version 4 is absolutely beautiful, front and back.

I can't seem to log into the claims website (my first time trying to do so), any ideas why that may be?

If you are planning to make your own cover for your solo, please read the first post carefully in the working thread and try to have it ready soon after it is catalogued .

FYI, due to recent feedback we now wait for the covers to be completed before uploading any recordings to YouTube. Before it picked a random book picture if not available but now it will reschedule and try later if the cover is not yet available.

We never arrange or schedule for the convenience of the multiple people who upload our volunteers work where ever that is -we have released the covers and the PD so what you do is legal - though many people would argue about the morality.

i think it is a great platform and a backup of the books - so, perfect solution respecting the covermakers and showing us, that people on youtube like the covers, too!

Post by **annise** » September 8th, 2021, 3:18 am

If you are worried about backup don't - I'm completely confident Internet Archive has much better backup plans than the owners of you tube. The uploaders are not providing a service to us - we are providing a means for them to make income according to hits - which is why they are keen to post links everywhere.

The Librivox YouTube channel is not monetized and does not generate any income. It only serves as another channel to reach more people.
