While entering cards from my collection into the database I ran across another peculiarity. The front image of the 1990 Score Sandberg #561a is listed as the corrected version and #561b is listed as the error. Actually the reverse is true. The corrected version is the one that has no position listed because it is a highlight card. Also the image associated with #561a shows the position in light blue. Either that card is 1 in a million or the position was Photoshopped on the card. The actual position is listed red. I have an image of that card in red and I'm sure the other 129 listed in collections will find the same thing on their cards. So I guess my questions are,

1. Can and should all these issues be addressed?

2. Without personally having the permissions needed to change certain errors in card listings, is there a defined place on the website to catalog errors/issues that need to be addressed by members that do have those permissions?

I usually just report the inaccuracy to admin and he or someone else will fix it in a day or two. If you are on the page for the card that is wrong scroll to the bottom and you can see how to report it.

randylaw said it best!! Good catch if that is the case. =)

Concur.  The position is supposed to be in red.  Excellent observation on your part. Report it and have the image removed, then scan and upload an image of your card.

Another case of an individual loading images that are not scans of their own cards. Creative to photoshop the light blue "2B".

Thanks for the heads up on how to report the inconsistencies.

Highly doubt it was photoshopped by the uploader here. Pretty sure it was "found on the web" as we see here.

Oh, and to address the question about how particular we are - this needs to be fixed - we're very particular. We want this stuff to be correct. :)

Thanks for finding this stuff!

Oh yeah !!! THAT TOO!! Thats why we rely on vrooomed, he remembers to answer all the questions. =)

I'm sure it wasn't Photoshopped by the uploader either (although I have that knowledge and capability) but I'm pretty sure wherever the image was found, that's exactly what was done to it.

I figured we were pretty particular about complete accuracy here. Without it the information found is less than useful. Glad to be able to make my small contribution to strive for total accuracy.

Since we are particular...several little problems with this set. Why is card #310 a UER? Why is 6' 11" incorrect on card #316? And on card #501, what's wrong with '85 Twins? 

I think I corrected the numbering....but a double check would be good. I usually miss something.

And the cropping......"sigh".... examples of why I strive to do it right the first time. Apologies to anyone who has had to fix any of my images and encouragement to all of us to take the extra few seconds and properly crop our images.
