Looking for Collection Photos

shelves = sun damage?
I'm too afraid to display my games :/

Shelves only equal sun damage if you have them near a window and they are always being shined on. If they aren't near a window or the blinds are never open, then you have nothing to worry about. I say, all the money I've spent on these things, if it's not set out on display then I'm doing them an injustice.

Maybe once I find my own place I'll find a solution. A cabinet with UV protective glass or something

Yeah I plan to put up wood blinds and thick curtains in my "game room" once I get around to designing it.

Once I have my own place I plan on having a dedicated game room too. With a proper display cabinet, possibility a pool table and a bar.

My sister just bought a house and it's making me sick...she's got this beautiful huge finished basement. I took one look around and I was like "Hmm, the arcade cabinets and my XBox display here...and a few hours and some wood and we could make a media closet right there....and run cables behind that wall to a TV hung right here..."

At the rate I'm going, I'm going to be at least 40 before I have an actual house.

Finally updated madmax's front page image, and added persona420's image to the front page!

Wow that turned out pretty good considering how bad my picture was. Most of it's all in there.

[scott]

Yup that's why I angled it, that way I could fit more into the frame.

Would a photo like this work or do you prefer pictures that are of whole collections or sub collections?

@maverickrenegade I missed this last night, I'll add it tonight.

Such a simple solution to the sun problem. Everyone should heed these wise words. I have wooden blinds and I'm not worried about sun at all with them.

Looked into UV glass but you'd better be ready to pay. It's not exactly the most cost-friendly solution.

[scott]

@maverickrenegade I can't use that image, it's not got enough side to side spacing and I can't fit the whole cart into the image. If you could take another picture, maybe not zoomed in as much that would be helpful.

[scott]

Here it is, my entire collection! I also just realized that my cart of Castlevania 1 is the 5 screw version rather than the 3 screw, nice. Of course I did find a black label Symphony of the Night for a good price recently too, but its not here yet. Ha

edit: Updated with a newer pic, rather than posting it again.

I love the new look with the collection photos on the front page with the link to the collections, it's appears as though it would be really inviting to those who aren't quite sure what the site has to offer.

That's the exact plan. The old page had no info on it at all and I think people who stumbled upon the site really had no clue what it was.

Nice! I wish I knew why the image wasn't popping up though...
