Yeah, I know we've done similar topics before (mostly on how we ARRANGE it), but not really just pictures.
Providing that the board bandwidth can manage and that it doesn't screw up slow connections too much, I suggest that we post one or maximum TWO pictures of our collection in this thread with just a few basic explanatory comments (i.e. not a lot of text).
Would be a useful general overview and give a nice visual "feeling" of our passion.
The bottom two shelves are DVDs. This picture was taken two years ago, so since my collection has expanded since, the furniture is now packed with CDs. Needless to say I moved the DVDs elsewhere.
Spanosdm, you'll need to edit your message and click on the "Special Code Legend" link on the left of the message field to see how to include images-- viz: [ img ] adress_without_the_http_thing [ /img ]
Oh wait, it's working, now, you must have corrected it while I was typing this-- I'll keep it so I won't have typed it for nothing.
My soundtrack collection is arranged alphabetically by film genre, and then by film title. I recently had to migrate to the walk-through closet since we're preparing the extra bedroom for our new arrival (my wife is 15 weeks pregnant). A small price to pay, I suppose...
And yes, every CD is enclosed in a resealable 'CD baggie' which not only protects the cases from dust, scratches, and fingerprints, but also allows me to display the Japanese CDs with the obi on the outside (as intended).
The pic on the bottom features the "non-soundtrack" CDs, also arranged alphabetically by genre, but within each genre the CDs are arranged by artist rather than title.
