Amazon book covers - can I edit the link to Amazon.com?

I am creating a list of books and using the cover images from Amazon, but I do not want students to be directed to Amazon.com when they click on the cover instead of the title (which they will do). Any way to edit this link?

Marc and I discussed this, we wanted to figure out the best way to make the images look good without any tricks and we have a good plan. We just need to double check something with the Syndetics folks, and in the next few days we will implement the fix so that all images will look sharp, without you having to do anything special or insert the image manually.

I'll post an update here when we're ready, it should be in a few days, as soon as we hear back from Syndetics.

Thanks much.; ▶ Reply to This

Ok I think we got this issue fixed. Since Syndetics seems to have varying image sizes what we did is we took their largest images and scaled them down so now in every case things are being scaled down, and not scaled up (it was when the images were scaled up that you noticed the blurry images).

Please take a look now and let us know if it's working right.

Thanks.; ▶ Reply to This
