I'll repeat Jason1017's question: How can you find out how many posts you have made? Even though he found it, I can't find it anywhere!!

Thanks in advance!

The spine numbers are meant to ensnare collection addicts. Those of us with this affliction feel compelled to buy them ALL.

I love Jackskeleton's spelling - whenever we are sparring about Buffy or something, I whip out a quick one about the way he spells something. It's quite an edge...!

Or put them with their respective genres. Check out my DVDAf link for examples. Once you start doing that, you'll never notice.

Mine are sorted by director--and the Criterion's get no special treatment ...
