O.K., so insomnia kicked in and I went and scanned everything.
I decided not to contribute Cabin Fever. The front didn't come out well at any angle. The back was alright but existing colors are much better than I was getting and I have a sticker over the UPC (with the same UPC, but tilted and one which won't come off easy). The only difference is the bottom of back cover and it didn't seem worth it to me, in fact I just dumped my scans and got existing back in my local.

That's all I have from this list. Feel free to check my list (owned only, ordered aren't all really coming ) or put up another list. I'm more likely to have horror titles than anything else. I'll scan what I can.

I previously had good results on a lenticular cover using a laminating pouch...

This is kinda funny...
The TCM2 is getting nothing but "yes" votes despite having a sticker. Meanwhile fans of Pirates are hating on the sticker and it's close to even, which I'm sure means the "no"'s will take over. It's like a virus, once you get that first no vote, the others follow quickly.

Like I said in the contribution notes, I'm not goin to tear up my nice skipcover to try and get it off. If it gets declined and anyone wants either of my scans I'll post links to full size images (as full as photobucket will allow) here soon so you can put them in your local.

I've had cover submissions in the past declined despite having 80-90% yes votes, not sure if 60% or less has any hope of getting accepted. I think all the others will be in your local soon.

Here's the Pirates covers for those who might want them. It's 12-11 on the vote now so I'm almost considering withdrawing them, but will wait and see what happens.

I wouldn't withdraw them; they may very well be accepted!

I agree with Kathy.  While I don't particularly care for them, others seem to like them just fine.  Gerri may end up being one of those 'others'.  If she is, I will just keep mine locked down.  No harm, no foul. 
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

Gonna let em ride and see what happens.
They'll also be up on the photobucket links I provided for a while as I have no need to clear any space there. Those are a lot less compressed than the ones for vote as well.

With the lenticular covers, you might try a different placement on the scanner. I've had drastically different results (and images) with different spots on the scanner glass.

Just picked up:
024543172574 - i, Robot: All Access Collector's Edition

I'll try scanning the slipcase tonight but have doubts about it being good enough to submit.
It's reflective and it has some gouges, scuffs and dents (no tears ). I'll see what I can do with photoshop and report back. In fact, I'll post links no matter how they turn out but won't submit them if not better than existing, which are close to being identical and falling under the reflective rule anyway.

024543172574 - i, Robot: All Access Collector's Edition is about to be submitted. Not sure how this will go over but they look nice.
Just in case, here they are:

Back:

EDIT/update:
Slightly brightened and re-submitted after too many "too dark" votes. To make links look like the new submissions, open in pictureIt9 (photoshop should work too) and turn up birghtness 5 clicks.
