If a SteelBook has a back j-card cover, especially with the UPC visible, you should definitely use that.

I would also say if any j-card wraps around the "front" to use that also, but I've seen some SteelBook contributions approved that removed those in place of a front scan without the j-card.

I agree. I would scan the cover as if it was still sitting on a shelf in a retail store.

The back should look as it does before it was opened. J-card and all.

Agreed.

Agreed; as per this thread vote:

http://www.invelos.com/Forums.aspx?task=viewtopic&topicID=780093&messageID=2450932

in which the vast majority voted to not only scan the rear with J-card/paper wrap around (but obviously with the cellophane removed if possible - some people will keep steels in the cellophane for value so it might be necessary to go with that on until a better set of scans are done, as per other scans, but ALSO, front scans should include any J-card/paper wrap etc, so again it follows the general "rule of thumb": Scans should match what you would see in the shop (but without cellophane or stickers).
