Dust, lots and lots of dust... and boxes! :shock:

Actually that looks like a pretty neat utility. Far too organised for me, I usually just work from memory believe it or not.

Me too. Although I only collect for the 3DO. I'd be divorced, quite possibly dead and maybe even castrated if I collected for anything else. So memory works fine :D

Apart from the numerous duplicate copies of stuff I've got for when I can't be bothered to lean over and check when I'm on eBay!

heh i did that at first but after buying many duplicates i had to organize, plus the 29 systems i was collecting for would all be a jumble in my head
its hard to trade 3DO games believe it or not :)

i once offered 25 3do games for 2- 3do manuals and i had no bites, if it was me i would have bought the games on ebay for about $25 and trade the manuals for the 25 games but people are lazy like me i guess

the hardware feature has saved me some cash, with a list of everything from systems to controllers/adaptors, because after a few years i would forget what i had for a certain system, but not anymore :D

I have alot of stuff but I don't really collect as such. It's only CD-i gear I accumulate pieces to use on Black Moon. All the toys I buy are eventually used :lol:

I wrote my own software to catalog my collection, it's using PHP+MySQL. There's an online demo available, but I don't maintain it anymore.

Very cool. Would you care if I borrowed some of your GUI layout ideas for the design of my own app? Are the country flags your design as well?

Nope, feel free to borrow as much from the GUI as you want. :)

The country flags aren't my design, but they are used everywhere. I think they came from a free resource.
