Images being replaced on torrent uploads - annoying

Annoying IMAGE on torrent problem.
Often, when I upload a torrent.. the GOOD image I upload with it - which is typically the COVER of the box - is replaced by a dozen or more crappy images from the video. That makes it fairly "invisible" in the BROWSE gallery.
It would be nice if when people uploaded additional images, they did NOT bump the uploader's image out of the main image spot.
It would also be nice if the uploader were able to change the order of the images on the torrent.. just in case someone uploaded a BETTER image than the uploader did.
I uploaded HelixStudios Raw Talent with THIS image..
but someone else bumped the image I uploaded out of the way for this lame image below...

The system awards a bonus point for each image added by a member, which encourages "image spam" from some people. It might be good to put some sort of limit on bonus points to discourage indiscriminate image posting.
It would indeed be better if new images uploaded by other people came at the end of the image series, not at the beginning. I like the idea of having the original torrent poster be able to change the order of images, but this should go along with a system of "new images go last" so that the OP doesn't need to constantly check uploaded torrents.
Another way around this problem is that if the original post has ten or more images, nobody can add additional images--including the OP. While it can be tedious to snatch multiple images from the video file (VLC media player can be used for this), it does stop the problem of other people adding images.

A lot of uploader/OP are rushing to post multiple torrent immediately and posting only one picture as/mandatory to gain pointless ratio...
[This is so-called laziness or negligence] not aware of torrent presentation...
Of course others are interested to add screenshots and covers to earn extra seed bonus points [SBP] w/c sometimes result in picture spam...I've said this before and will say it again...
To prevent this from happening in the future,
You should upload @least 10 pictures and upload them through descending order [name/date] w/c will show first picture you desired...
The system generates picture from descending to ascending order [name/date], a minimum of 10 or more picture will close the add screenshot/covers process...
The last of 10 picture you uploaded will be priority in the first hand and the first picture you uploaded will be the last in order...This will prevent others from adding pictures...
There are many ways to capture picture to avoid pushing your original picture w/c you wanted most... -
Was also going to say just post 10 pictures and no one can add more.
It is frustrating when others post to someone elses torrent and the images don't represent the video.
