I have every Legion issue published except for Adventure 247, and I would like to begin systematically scanning and uploading covers for use in other articles and for a cover gallery. To make these several hundred images the most useful and usable, I would like to establish image conventions and uniformity in size, resolution etc. I would be interested to hear other people's thoughts on the subject, particularly if its already been discussed and decisions have been made.
