How do you make the manuals bigger? I put them as "front" at the moment. There are at least 1-2 different manuals for this game, they can't all fit under the cover.

The Scanbox template is for... well... primarily for scans of boxes, not manuals. Sega Retro's policy on manuals is to scan each page individually and stick them in a CBR file (essentially a RAR file but with a different extension so comic book readers can understand). See our current collection.
Alternatively, if it's a manual printed on one sheet of paper, you'd do something like this
Mega Drive, EU
EASportsDoubleHeader MD EU Box.jpg
Cover
EA Double Header SWE manual.jpg

But as far as I'm aware, most Mega Drive manuals are booklets, so that wouldn't apply here. Also sign your comments with "-~~~~". -Black Squirrel 06:14, 2 October 2011 (CDT)
