It's just that over time people replace images with higher quality ones, and have been editing existing images (as site is designed to allow people to do) until a standard emerges, but nobody wants to put people off adding whatever they can by offering an impossible standard, or one that you may not have the wherewithall to achieve, so whatever you can add is gratefully received, if it adds to the sum total of information (visual or factual), so long as people don't mind others improving on it, for the benefit of site quality with regards the informative nature of what is here... ("The greater good.....the greater good".... (Bit of Hot Fuzz for you there ) ... standardisation helps make the site easier to navigate and understand, and more, well usable. The order Redpunk mentions allows you to see most relevant / important detail first, before your eye moves on to periphery or add ons etc. But the lead image being cropped mostly acts as a thumbnail in discographies, where you don't really need to see (and at that level, can't anyway) deeper detail... you go into the entry itself for that, having identified which entry you want, by means of thumbnail / lead image. People do a lot of work editing images, and put the effort in to the presentation of the site, and mods will always acknowledge that by helping to order entries according to their suggestions... which means, over time, the style of the site will evolve more towards that... as it has, and continues to do so. But we all say thanks to everyone for anything they do in their contributions... Every little helps* (*copyrighted by me, and never used by anyone else, anywhere, ever... honest! )
