Could someone let me have some feedback on my drafts (I haven't finished submitting all the recordings yet, so there isn't yet a catalogue page) for 12693 The court and character of King James:

https://librivox.org/uploads/covers/courtandcharacter_1803.zip

This is an early 17th century text originally circulated privately to people that the author obviously expected to be familiar with the names he refers to, so I thought it needed an extended summary/catalogue entry to provide some explanation and background for today's audience, as well as a general introduction. So I've used the general introduction for the jewel case summary, and the extended background information in the cover booklet format. Would that be OK?

Hello Patrick
You actually sent the templates not your rough drafts so I can't comment on them. But I can about your booklet idea . We don't have an automatic place to put it , so although we could link it it would show down the left hand side not under the cover image , but it is possible.
Now for my opinion and it is opinion .
I don't know how many people use the actual CD cover as most listeners just download or stream the files - there are people who do . but the 300X300 and the 150X150 are widely used all over the place, but they do not include the booklet
So if you want more people to access the extra information and you feel it's too much to put in the summary , there are a couple of ways people use. They place a link in the summary which can go to a web address with a good explanation or they put the information into a pdf and ask the MC to upload the pdf to the Archive project page and link it in the summary at Archive and LV.

Oops, silly me. I've now uploaded the drafts I originally intended.

Thanks for the suggestion of a pdf of "explanatory notes" or something similar - that might well make more sense.

covers look nice - it's hard with such a long heading to make the smaller image's title legible but that's a problem we all have

You've given me 2 pdf's - I can only link one , so you either have to chose which one you want , the Jewel case or the origami one , or have them in the one pdf - I think that's possible ?
