He recently 'went pro' and quit his day job to run the site full time and has been implementing a whole series of enhancements including pages for game designers, and better support for other gaming areas such as wargames. The BGG format may not be exactly what you have in mind, but it's an outstanding database for games, including photographs, commentary, rules variants, and tracking all key data on a product. Plus you can easily track all of your own collection there, including condition and other commentary, find people with trade material, and sell in the marketplace.It's not as much value as a discussion forum, but hey The Acaeum has that covered...

Some questions to ponder:What software would you plan on using?What time frame for products?Non TSR products, but containing the TSR logo (some jigsaws for example)?Different print runs are distinguished by small differences, often on the back cover or inside. Would you want to post images of those differences?

2. What does PHP stand for?PHP stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor. This confuses many people because the first word of the acronym is the acronym. This type of acronym is called a recursive acronym. The curious can visit Free On-Line Dictionary of Computing for more information on recursive acronyms.

Its popular because it was one of the first scripting languages that could be used to easily embed server side code in an html page, which meant dynamic sites were much easier to develop. Personally I prefer Perl/Mason, but this is getting a bit off topic.
