Book Wholesalers, Inc., a book supplier to U.S. public libraries, has posted
a small report on their recently received shipment of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince including a tiny picture of the backside jacket.
If you're trying to stay spoiler-free, you might want to pass on this one although it's difficult to see any detail.
UPDATE: Scholastic has officially released a much higher quality version of the art on the back side (without text). From their press release:

OH. MY. GOD!!!! that is the coolest cover ever! Only I thought that the dark mark would be more solid-looking, and not just an apparition. Just to let all of you know who don't want to spoil it, it is not really spoiled, because you don't know what's happening or when it's happening until you read the book and find out all the details. I have a feeling that if all those other people are Ginny and neville (luna?) and that is Hogwarts in the background, maybe a student conjured it. draco? I'm also curious to see what Dumbledore and Harry are looking in the cauldron for. Maybe it is some sort of prohphecy having to do with the HBP. Somehow I think that harry is the HBP, so the title is sort of ironic. Maybe he isn't. Well we'll find out in six days!!!!!

I saw that pic on another site about like 10 minutes ago...I really like it.But it really dosen't give you that much insight on what the books' about.But after you read you seem to understand the images on the back like a puzzle finally put all together.

Yay! Big version! OOOMMMGGG this is so cool! The back cover is a good sign to R/H shippers... :) Look how close they are!!! I'm not sure... but I think that's wither Ginny or Luna standing next to them.

On the high-res version, Ron looks kinda cute! :) Much better than what he looks like on the cover of CoS (American.). Hehe! Hmm and now that I looked at it longer, yes, I think that is deffinately Ginny beside Ron and Hermione. Don't know who that is on the left though... maybe Dean or just some random student... ?

QUOTE: "some computer genius needs to blow up the summary PLEASE!!!!"
It is literally impossible to do that, even if you are a computer genius. The picture, on the internet atleast, the words are little dots/pixels so if you enlarge them they would just be bigger dots/pixels.... right? *unsure*

How awesome! Mary GranPre does it again! I checked out the Scholastic hi-res version and my guess is that the third student who is so well defined must be Ginny Weasley. Her character really fleshed out in OotP and so that's my guess and I'm sticking to it...for now...after I read it next Saturday I may have to change my mind.
