I would like to know how to change an image from the default image of an anime title on my animelist. For example, if you go on my animelist layout C3 and the C3 special have the exact same cover. I want to know how I can change the cover for the C3 special to a cover that MAL already has such as http://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/2/32299.jpg

There are also other instances when other anime have the exact cover like Hyakka Ryouran and its specials and Freezing with its specials. This may just be me, but I feel as though every single anime should have a different picture/cover representing that specific entry (Special, OVA's,Movies,etc.) By doing so, it will make Myanimelist look better, especially with those who utilize the DvD cover option. And for those who do not like the cover provided, there should be a option in which one can pick a cover among the pictures that are provided

The only ones of those that you mentioned that appear to be the same are
http://myanimelist.net/anime/25689/Hyakka_Ryouran:_Samurai_After
http://myanimelist.net/anime/30237/Hyakka_Ryouran:_Samurai_After_Specials
The other sets are all different, even if they have similarities.

And yes, I guess different things should have different images if at all possible. But it's hardly the highest of priorities, especially given that things with identical images are rather unusual.
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.

The reason why they have the same picture is because the specials are mainly come out with the BDs so they get the same cover pic.
However you can send in your own pic if you dont like them, but I dont know how supportive the staff with this.

Can't you edit the coding of the DVD layout?

You can change the cover on your list with CSS. You asked the same question in Support minus the suggestion, and I answered it there already
