I tried something like this on the Project Announcements threads "Projects Index". Thought it would be GREAT to have a simple index of cabinets with a single picture and a link to the project thread. People could flick through like a catalogue and click to the project they were interested in (as the link would stay current). Didn't seem anyone (apart from two - thanks guys) were interested, and it rapidly failed. If I were you, I would put something together yourself - find the cabs you like and post them yourself, I wouldn't bother asking people to post their cabs - it won't happen (at least in the way you hoped it would). Good luck ... :cheers: |

If you're cool with these changes I'll volunteer to start adding photos in my free time. ;D EDIT: I was too excited, and I took the liberty to make some minor changes, inspired by your addition. I imagined adding a default "no image" pic for the projects without images, so that the column of thumbnails is even on the left-hand side. Let me know what you think? |

I love the pictures in the wiki! When I first started on my cab, I tried using the text list, and didn't make it through too many. |

I like the no image pic, but I wish more wiki entries had pics on the site FWIW, a two column table was suggested, so I put a sample of what that looks like in the wiki discussion page http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Talk:Cocktail_cabinets Seems like a good use of space to me, but then it would be hard to keep the list alphabetical |

Easily I have the best cabinet. There is no reason to list anymore. I'm available for interviews to discuss this project. |
