I don't think it doesn't matter how large images you submit on 6415015508085 profile. There are very few differences after the image size are reduced.

The rules states: "Before submitting new scans of cover art, make sure your new covers are of significantly higher quality than the existing online images...". I think the emphasis is on the word significantly...

Wasn't there a rule at some point that the cover image size is limited to 500x700?

Cover Images

Before submitting new scans of cover art, make sure your new covers are of significantly higher quality than the existing online images, and meet the following criteria:

    The covers must match the profile exactly, including the UPC and locality.
    Image size must be at least as large as the existing online covers. If you don't have a premium registration, you will be unable to verify this. Therefore, submit only images you have personally scanned at 100 DPI or higher.
    If you scan images for your personal database at a quality that are higher than 100 DPI, you may still submit them. If accepted, they will automatically be downsized for inclusion in the main database.
    Image quality must be at least on par with the existing online covers. Covers that are larger than existing images but are of inferior clarity will not be accepted.
    Images must not contain extra watermarks, autographs, or site links.
    Images must be of the front and back only. Do not include the spine in either the front or back image.
    Make sure neither front nor back is of lesser quality than the existing scans.
    If a DVD is packaged in a keep case, within a slipcase of some kind, scan the Cover Images from the outer slipcase. If, however, the Slipcase is reflective, and the inner cover art is identical, use the Keep Case art to scan, as it will give a better quality image.
    If a title is re-released with the same UPC, but different cover images, do not contribute the new images to the original profile. This includes cases where a DVD was initially released in a slipcase, which was later removed. As explained in the introduction you may use your personal images in your local database, but they will not show online. Consult the alternate version rule section to determine whether an alternate version is warranted.
    Do not contribute generic "Coming Soon" images. If the back image is not yet available (as in a pre-release), use the front images in both places.
    HD DVD and Blu-Ray discs in either HD Slim or HD Keep Case type cases without slip covers should be scanned without the HD banner.
    The inner sleeve may be used in lieu of the front cover as long as the only difference is the exclusion of sticker(s) or rating overlay

    Changing an images' DPI setting does not inherently change the resolution or quality.  The top image here is 72 DPI and the bottom one is 600 DPI:

    "Note: TWO IDENTICAL PICTURES ARE SHOWN IN KEN'S  ORIGINAL POST"

    As others have mentioned, the max resolution of a contributed image is 500x700 pixels.  The DPI setting is unrelated to image quality and won't affect how it is displayed or printed in DVD Profiler.
