I wanted to ask some questions of those of you that have the kind of collections I aspire to, I am still sorta new so please bear with me. I did a search, but didn't find (more accurately know how to find) what I was looking for. Feel free to give me a link or PM me if I missed an obvious thread.This is my project tomorrow and Monday, but I would like to do it right so I don't have to do it again later :D.1. In your experience what's the best way to catalog your collection? Spreadsheet? Do any have a template you recommend?2. What categories do you divide your collections into?3. Do most of you take photos for insurance?4. On a shelf should you stack boxed sets and books or do you store them like books (spine facing toward you)?5. Finally, in regards to boxed sets do you put bubble wrap or in something in the box to help keep its shape?Thanks again,Zach
