ROM files with no boxart #198

Closed kwyxz closed 7 years ago

Hello folks,

What is the consensus on ROM files with no known boxart? I'm thinking about things like this for the Super Famicom, for example, but there's other cases with different hardwares:

    name "Parame ROM Cassette Vol. 1 (Japan) (Unl)"
    name "Parame ROM Cassette Vol. 2 (Japan) (Unl)"
    name "Parame ROM Cassette Vol. 3 (Japan) (Unl)"
    name "Parame ROM Cassette Vol. 4 (Japan) (Unl)"
    name "Parame ROM Cassette Vol. 5 (Japan) (Unl)"
    name "DSP1 Tech Demo (USA) (Demo)"

Is there a generic placeholder we could use? Thanks!

In the README:

Boxart for unlicensced and prototype titles is welcome, but in no case should fan-made or mockup boxart be submitted.

Fair enough. Thanks!
