Well, that works, but I thought the only problem with the old one was the wonky Amazon look-up. We'd still have to acquire a lot of cover images. Otherwise I'd like to lose the black title banner.
It would also need an example: it took me a while to guess the form of the image description and I don't know if it can be captioned. --Old Dickens (talk) 00:50, 10 June 2013 (GMT)

Ok, in response to the above:

1. The amazon look-up is a good idea but when images are changed, moved or deleted from the source this ultimately affects what we see in the template so it does have a caveat. To be perfectly honest why are the cover images already uploaded to the site not being used to their full potential? I mention briefly here (at the bottom of the section) about the use of license templates, which don't seem to be implemented on this site at, well, not that I can see anyway.
2. You mention in the 'picture rules' section that you got on fine using low-res images of book covers, so what changed exactly? Using low-res images, providing they are covered by an appropriate license is acceptable. If it so much of a concern has there been any action into asking for special permission from the Terry Pratchett website to use low-res cover images? A template can be used to specifically state permission was granted etc. etc. etc.
3. Any other cover images not currently uploaded to the site can be done in the same manner.
4. We can lose the black background of title banner (not remove the banner altogether) and keep it the same colour as the rest of the template.
5. I will include a fully working example in my user sanbox at some point.
6. Not quite sure what you mean by "it took me a while to guess the form of the image description", can you elaborate please?
7. I haven't looked into captions for the cover image. I don't think it works so well with this type if image fill within the table. I can look into it but not sure of the outcome yet. --CelticWanderer  ^{talk | contribs | email} 09:34, 10 June 2013 (GMT)
