I have added the contents of 49595, a-g, for catalog submission but do not have
images since BL requires minimum sizes and I only have smaller images which I
could not upload.

I am asking that the items be allowed to be added without the photo or allow
the smaller image as having a photo does not seem to be a prerequisite considering
the vast number of empty cape boxes that are being added without photos.

(I'm not questioning why empty cape boxes are trending in the new items added
category, everyone has a thing)

Thank you for your consideration in adding without photo or feel free to add
the photo without me

Sorry but they won't be approved without images. General rule is that almost
(because there are some exeptions of course) every item to be approved need to
have image.
Exeptions are:
1) torso for torso assembly - because when you have torso assembly submitted
with image you know how the torso without arms and hands looks like as the print
is the same as in the main torso assembly entry,
2) stickers sheet but only when correct information is submitted in description
so it have to be design id number printed on stickers sheet entered to describtion
by submitter (without it and without image stickers sheets won't be approved),
3) carboard sleevs as they looks the same they just differ by number printed
on it and this number is in description and part number.

From help page (Adding images https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=87):
"Item and image submissions are accomplished separately on different pages. You
do not need to wait for a submitted item to be approved and in the catalog before
you submit images for it. You do not need to be the item's submitter.
The item must simply have been submitted before any image upload is possible.
We encourage image submission to follow as soon as possible after item submission
because an image can help catalog administrators evaluate the item submission.
For more information on item submission, see Adding Items."

So always can sombody elese add images to pending items which are without it.
We wait a month after that period items without images are deleted from pending.
