What programs do people use for cataloging?

Jaydisc, if there is figure in my collection that's not in your db can I as a user add it to the db? I found some missing when I was browsing earlier to see if it had everything.

Hey Jaydisc, thanks for the info on your database (I'm all for supporting a fellow board member ).
Couple of questions.. 1) Does iTFDB have the abilty to download your collection to a file?? Just incase the internets blows up
2) The images for some of the figures seem really small is there a limit to the size/dimensions that can be uploaded by a user or is there a copyright issue having bigger images?

Yes! Please do. You'll see that when you're in the Chooser, at the top right of the list there is an option to "Create a new figure":

Thanks for that. But please, choose what's best for you. While I love the idea that the site is being used, it doesn't benefit me, so please make sure it's right for you.

1. No, but I would be more than happy to manually export a CSV file of your collection upon request.

2. When an image is uploaded, I crop it so that it is no larger than 600 x 600. If the uploaded image is smaller, I don't scale it up. I'd be happy to increase this, but it would not affect any existing images… only new uploads. What dimensions would you prefer?

Sorry for the slow replies. I just realized that notifications on the thread were not set correctly.
