Don't know if anyone has thought of this before, but I think it would be nice if one could lock the cover scans - front & back - separately, rather than the way it is now, that when you lock it does both.

Sometimes one might have a really nice front cover and a crappy back cover (or vice versa) and want to keep the good one, yet be open to a nice update for the crappy one.

Just a thought.

That would be nice.  At the moment I have to copy the one I like, accept the update, then repaste the original back in.  Your way would be much easier.

Profile Comparison Plus allows to selectively update only the front or back cover.

Would be also nice to have an option to Auto Lock Cover scans if you have scanned them in yourself

This is a good idea. Definite +1 from me.

The same problem is of course with contributing as well. Sometimes I only would like to replace a bad quality front- / back-coverscan in the online database, but in order to do that, I need to contribute both covers.

+1 Each to the OP and the proposal of dbisping.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

This is one of the really nice features of Profile Comparison Plus.  So it is evidently something doable through code -- so I'd welcome Ken adding it to Profiler, if only for those users unwilling to pay for a registered version of your plugin, Matthias.

BTW: To me, registering Profile Comparison Plus is well worth it.
