I was thinking, for titles like this;
Is it okay to add an alternate cover?

What I mean is-
This was bundled with the Blu-Ray so it has the same cover as the Blu-Ray, therefore the album art would be a different size to all over album arts on a music player or portable mp3 player etc.
So for titles like this that I have, I've cropped the art to a perfect square and for some depending on how much time I have I sometimes even put in the title (As it appears on that DVD/BD/Game cover of course)

Would we be allowed to put images like that in (obviously only one or two per album so pages aren't bombarded with the same cover art if not different areas cropped)?

FOR EXAMPLE: http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/1796/004small.png

imo, it's not ok
a scan must reflect the reality, cropping just for making square isn't a good idea (I could even say it's stupid)

and the cd as "display cover" is enough and already square

Fair enough, I'll keep the OCD to myself then :P
