I have about 225 titles and I've been "collecting" for 5 years now. After I fill my latest DVD stand I'm going to throw a title away for each one purchased. Enough is enough!!!

You might call it an obsession, but I consider it an archive. Most places are not saving obscure movies. I know that I have a considerable amount and when I am done organizing find them
You are seeing pictures while I am in the middle of organizing, but I am ususally not this bad.
I buy cheap and hunt around for bargains (I just paid $16 for the criterion edition of Silence of the Lambs). Many of the videos were under $5. If you hunt around you can find bargans.
I am a librarian by the way.

Okay . . . after some redecorating, etc. I finally have gotten the chance to get some pictures of my setup (click on image for bigger picture).
TV and HT System (the rear speakers and the sub are "off-screen")
Boxed Sets (on newly installed Ikea BENNO shelves . . . special thanks to *RG3* for the inspiration
)
All other DVD's (flourescent "bar" lights installed above and on either side of the door frame)

You have two "Now Playing" stands. Do you watch two DVDs at a time? You run the risk of confusing yourself and your friends.

2) I used drywall anchors to mount the shelves, using the pre-drilled holes, in the location where I wanted them on the wall (I had that measured out first),
3) I drilled new holes in the shelves where they lined up with the studs, and
4) Used some large wood screws to anchor the shelves into the studs using the new holes.
It worked great . . . I could probably hang on those things and they wouldn't go anywhere.

"I bought a new stud finder the other day at the hardware store and it works, but it's essentially worthless. Every time I try to use it, it always ends up pointing at me."
