That is correct. That's why I said nobody's going to see anything "really exciting" right away. I'm not trying to build up angst or anything, just my OCD wanting to do it in order (that's also how I have them in the boxes). Tonight I'm going to scan right when I get home and hopefully add 10+ more cards to the thread.

Yeah, I was planning on adding to the OP a breakdown (and keeping it up to date) on all of the cards in my Pistons PC. I'll update it here within the hour.

Added collection details to OP, changed font, added pictures to links for threads and collections, and added a background to my collection.

Yeah, but make your own thread so I can drool all over it.

Nice stuff! I got a lot more to learn from you I see. I got the centering part down but now I gotta figure out how to make bold letters and those lines and I'll be set lol.

That bold font is actually a heading. Here's an example.

Heading 1

Code:

<h1>Heading 1</h1>

Heading 2

Code:

<h2>Heading 2</h2>

Heading 3

Code:

<h3>Heading 3</h3>

Heading 4

Code:

<h4>Heading 4</h4>

Heading 5

Code:

<h5>Heading 5</h5>

Heading 6

Code:

<h6>Heading 6</h6>

The styles of the headings are defined by the site you're on. Headings almost always will be on their own line, so no need to hit enter unless you want bigger separation.

However, if you just want to bold your font, you'd do this.

This is bold font.

Code:

This is <b>bold</b> font.

And if you want to change the font of your post like I did, then you can wrap the post in div tags and define the font-family.

Hello, how are you?

Code:

<div style="font-family: 'Calibri'; font-size: 16px;">
Hello, how are you?
</div>

Hello, how are you?

Code:

<div style="font-family: 'Calibri'; font-size: 12px;">
Hello, how are you?
</div>

Hello, how are you?

Code:

<div style="font-family: 'Copperplate Gothic Bold'; font-size: 16px;">
Hello, how are you?
</div>

You can also look on my "Make your Trade Thread Pretty!!!" thread where I have other helpful hints. Or, go to http://www.w3schools.com.

Now you just have to get the entire collection graded lol

That is my goal, but OMG that is going to cost a lot. That's why I wanted to start doing a monthly group submission through here, but I haven't finalized the details yet. If we could get group submissions going, I'd probably get 5 graded a month to start, then raise it each year, HOPEFULLY getting them all graded at one point. And yes, I will even be getting the $0.05 card graded too.
