Dear All; I have installed the koha (version 2.2.5) on my library using Linux debian (sarage) on PC platform, and I impressed of its work, anyway I could not find a way to include my own generated cover images (scanned version) of books. so any comments will be appreciated.
thanks

Hi Shahab, The amazonratings folder contains a script for acquiring amazon images, but as I've never used it I can't comment on whether it work. In the next version of Koha (2.4), there is an Amazon.com module that automatically inserts Amazon images (if you turn it on). The images are pulled directly from Amazon.com as a user browses the OPAC.
