Overview: Cover and branding artwork
Cover and branding artwork provide distinct visual identities for catalogue items and their presentation surfaces.
A portrait poster, a wide backdrop and a transparent logo are intended for different compositions. Embedded cover art adds another storage relationship. The pages here explain those roles, helping identify whether an unexpected image comes from selection, aspect ratio or the source supplying the asset.
Posters
A poster is a principal identification composition whose title, imagery and aspect relationship need to remain useful at the library's display size.Backdrops
A backdrop is a background composition associated with media that must remain useful under crop, interface overlays and the chosen display environment.Transparent logos
A transparent logo retains title or branding pixels and coverage as a layer that can be composed over the library's chosen background.Embedded cover art
Embedded cover art carries image resources inside media metadata, with picture type, encoding and selection determining which image reaches the library.
