[QUOTE="jester47, post: 593683, member: 2238"] Moderators, please put this in the publishers forum if you tyhink it necessary. I have thirty issues and I cant find a dang thing. There is so much good stuff in there (yes this IS my opinion) but I cant keep it all in my head. I was looking back at the early issues and there was stuff in there that I just plum missed or forgot about. An example: I just found the charts for road and river encounters. How useful! I have had the idea of destroying my collection in the name of being able to find somthing. Like take each article of one type and put it in a binder with all the other articles of that type. That way if I need prestige classes, I can go to the Dragon Prestige classes binder and look there. If I need stuff on the realms, I can go to a Dragon Forgotten Realms binder and get the stuff there. Only one problem with this approach. (well 2, in the first case it destroys my collection) articles of different types share pages. So now I am considering photocopying all the ToCs and putting them in a binder marked Dragon Contents. However that still has some problems because the headings in the contents somtimes do not give information about what the contents contain!!! AAAA!! So here I look to those other gamers who have no life and have the time to dutifully catalog the contents of dragon in one easy to access file. Has anyone done this sort of thing yet? If not I may begin such a Dragon Documentation Project. I am envisioning an Excel file that details article type (class acts, ecology, etc) issue number, page number and a brief blurb of what it is about. That would be sooo handy. I am thinking if we can get 30 people to document one issue of 3e dragon, we could have this done in a week. If you are interested in working on this or have already done this please post here! Take out the nospam or I wont get the mail! Aaron. [/QUOTE]
