Which side do you display on you box sets?
 
Here's a stupid little question - when you have box sets in your collection, which side do you display? The side where you can see the individual titles, or the side showing the box? I display the titles, just was wondering what others here did.

the box.

I display the box, to me the titles looks weird.

Mikael79 06-26-07 01:36 PM

The box side - always.

Ginwen 06-26-07 01:39 PM

Box of course.

Except for the Nightmare on Elm Street box. The Titles line up to make a picture.

Giggles 06-26-07 01:58 PM

Box side. But I hope one day I'll have enough room to place all DVDs with their front sides like in a store. Maybe it's stupid, but that's my "thing" :)

When I had just two overflowing shelves, I would display the title side. Now that I have plenty of towers, cases, and shelves, I like the box side better. I don't know what happened.

TylerDurden_73 06-26-07 02:30 PM

I use to do spine side, but now I do box side. I think it looks cooler...

Me too, which is funny, because that is the one set that has the most complete information on the box side.

fletchtb 06-26-07 03:01 PM

I'm a title side guy.

Matthew Ackerly 06-26-07 03:04 PM

Depends on the box set.

Frozenhamster 06-26-07 03:05 PM

I'm a box side person too, except that I also try and put nice box sets in more display type fashion. The only exception for me is the Ultimate Matrix Collection. I just find that the side with the pullout digipaks looks nicer on my shelf.

The Eliminator 06-26-07 03:11 PM

I love box.

Yavin 06-26-07 03:14 PM

I display the box side facing outward as well. I like the keep the spines of the individual cases within shielded from the horrors of the real world.

PopcornTreeCt 06-26-07 03:21 PM

Depends on the box. I always keep the face side of the box forward like my individual DVDs. So, it usually ends up being the title spines on the outside. But right now I have all of my box sets separately so it's not really an issue.

Do you really love the box? Or are you just saying that?

Jason Reynolds 06-26-07 03:43 PM

Box side for me as well, except for SG-1 sets and Nightmare on Elm St.

GrimTangent 06-26-07 04:18 PM

If the movie titles are listed on the box side I'll have that facing out. Otherwise (like the Ultimate Matrix Collection) I'll display the spines.

Cardsfan111 06-26-07 04:25 PM

I'm with the majority -- box side.

whoisKeel 06-26-07 04:52 PM

You're wrong. Spine side is better.

HE Pennypacker 06-26-07 04:59 PM

Title Side.

Billy Batts 06-26-07 05:03 PM

As a whole, the box side. But there are certain exceptions.

I say let's have the best of both worlds; take the DVDs out of the box and display them spine side out next to the box side. Eh, eh, who's with me?

calhoun07 06-26-07 06:15 PM

Box side.

bunkaroo 06-26-07 06:22 PM

Box side, except for my Matrix HD-DVD set. I don't know why.

Nth Power 06-26-07 06:42 PM

Box side. It looks messy to me with the title side showing.

asianxcore 06-26-07 09:18 PM

Box side

eiker_ir 06-26-07 11:37 PM

spine side because overall it takes less space
