My scan was deleted:
Guilty Crown Complete Book cover by Aliceblond
with the following PM:
The scan you have submitted (Guilty Crown Complete Book cover) was removed for one or more of the following reasons:
- The image was too small. Only scans with a clear subject of 1,000,000 pixels or more are accepted.
- The scan contains excessive artifacts. This includes, but is not limited to: page folds, dust, or text on the image.
- The image was enlarged. The majority of anime images found on the internet are not sufficient quality to be submitted at Minitokyo, please do not attempt to enlarge these images for submission.If you still find the scan is of decent quality however, you can always submit it at Minitokyo's sister site: Zerochan.
Sincerely,Minitokyo Staff

Additional information provided by the moderator:
colors are really washed out compare to this:
GUILTY CROWN#596400Inquiries can be made in the Deletion Complaints forum.
1) The image was originally 15000 px by its bigger size. I resized it to make it more neat. It is not small at all, it
is actually big, having 7679 px by its bigger size.
2) It doesn't have folds, I've spent more than 3 hours removing them. If you can see them I'm really
surprized.
3) If a BIG scan is resized to a SMALLER size it is not enlarging, Mr. or Ms. moderatior. See the explanation number
1.
4) Would you please care to read what I wrote about this pic? This is a COMPLETE ARTBOOK COVER and its colour scheme is
totally different from the one from a PAGE from this arbook that you refer to. I can take a photo of both of them
together if you do not believe me. The arbook also has a black and white version of the same pics, but I thought that it
would be better to scan the colour version. Yes, the colour scheme is much more pale than the one from that artbook page
but it also includes the main male character of the series, not only the main female character. I paid close attention
to the artist's idea. If he/she chose the cover to be pale I should make it look pale too, not overdo its
saturation to suite someone's preferences.
I do not think that my scan is ideal but I do believe that it is not bad at all and meets MT's rules. I was really
surprised to see it deleted. MT has a lot of quite LQ scans from magazines, with folds, bending lines etc. Their
sumbmitters didn't care to edit them and I worked for several hours to share this pic with GC fans who do not own
this arbook like I do. If it is not appreciated I guess I'd rather be greedy and keep all the rare art from Guilty
Crown to myself.
Sincerely,
Aliceblond
