: It would be good if we can provide samples of back covers / disc images highlighting where the IDs are located. They are brought up in the GameFAQ discussion, but unclear how appropriate that is since I think GameFAQ fairly rarely includes back covers (though perhaps I'm misinformed there).

GameFAQs is hit or miss like the other databases but they do usually have good cover scans. If you click on the images tab at the top for a game page, the first section under there is box shots for the game for different regions.

So, it is a good source, about as good if not better for covers than GameTDB is. | |||
I think showing all the potential places to find IDs on the physical media is a great idea.
