When you say sort... you mean in the search results?

Is there a way to get higher res posters?

Posters have been updated to support high res versions on TMDb now. If you browse to a movie and upload a poster it will allow you to view and download the high res version now. Along with this, movies support multiple posters as well, and a new link will appear once a second poster is uploaded.

Keep in mind since all of the original posters are wicked low res, we are in essence starting from scratch but just keeping them around to look at until the new poster database gets large enough for it to run by itself.

What I am getting at is, unless you can click the poster and view the HD version of it, it's an old poster and needs to be replaced, so by all means...

Moving forward of course, we'll have an API for this so these can be pulled down into different apps.

I love the ability to add multiple posters thanks so much for that, I've begun uploading a few covers here and there from my collection, what I was wondering though, are the resolution requirements enforced at all? and is there a filesize limit like on thetvdb.com ?

Looks great! One question...I just added a movie, and the production company didn't show up as a search result, and i didn't see the option to make a new one. Am I missing anything or is the a planned feature for the future?
