How do you guys track your collections?

Spread sheets.

Tis the way of the thrifty College student.

I have one for each of the two main companies, the rest I thrown in a 'misc' spreadsheet with the comic companies name listed.

I list name, number, special, author(s), artist(s), & colorist(s)

*potentially wrong forum as well, I believe Misc Comics might even have a thread on this already*

 

Why does this thread exist in 3 forums?

 

*shrugs*

Because they haven't been merged into one and stuck into Misc Comics?

 

I created a Visual Basic program that organizes them for me in a database. All I put in is the Title and number, Date it came out, volume number and Company who makes them. I can do searches on any of them too. It's a nice little program.

 

Does anyone know of a good program like CCL that works with Macs?

 

Hmm..not that I know of.

<--has a Mac.

You might want to ask Jag though.

 

comicbook database--> comicbookdb.com

it adds the issues automatically the day they are released

 

One big Word document.

I don't have a comic wishlist, but what I do for titles that should be in my pull box, I got to diamonds website every Monday evening and then copy and past them into a word doc and then print that out for me to take to the comic book store. I also created a program for my video games and DVD collection, which the DVD does have a wishlist that keeps track of the ones I want and there release dates.

 

I don't track my comic collection. I'm constantly surprised when I look through my longboxes.

 

Same here. Catalogings for wussies

 

Anubis and I are the manliest comic collectors around.

 

Damn right!

 

I'm gonna beat my chest and eat raw steak tonight.

Because I can.

 

I use my brain.

 

Because of the things you find living within them?

 

Yes. My longboxes are all marked with the sign, "Here there be monsters."

In blood.

That was not a pleasant night.

 

I couldn't find one, so I never bothered to organize my collection. I thought about just making an HTML or Flash document, but figured-what for? If you have Excell you could always just make a spreadsheet or database or whatever. But as far as I know, there is no such program for Macs. But like Twylight said, ask Jag. He knows damn near everything about Macs.

BTW All Mac users are automatically cool in my book

 

Ah, blind brand loyalty. Gotta love it.

 

Nope, I just like quality. So sue me.

 

I throw them in a box, when I need something, I rummage, and always end up finding something else that interests me and forgetting what I originally intended to find.

 

Same here! t:
