I need to make an online catalogue
« on: January 26, 2021, 05:58:13 AM »
So yeah.. I need to do this, and figured maybe someone here might help? Has anyone uploaded their entire collection to some online catalogue?
I have an extensive collection of fabrics... Like an embarrassingly huge collection of prints... And I have no intention of stopping its growth lol, but its gotten so big that its nearly impossible for me to share it when I need someone to pick their fabric for a project...

I originally had it all listed on tumblr.. However its not organized, and tumblr does not work well mobile if you don't have the app installed, and I would like something that was more streamlined anyway... I am not planning on selling anything from this catalogue, it is strictly a visual reference.

I would like to be able to organize things, maybe using a keyword tag system (but not required)
I would for sure like to have categories that a person could click on and see all items in said category.
Also please no apps, I work mainly on a desktop, and I want this to be easily accessible without someone needing to install apps..
I don't mind paying a domain fee, but free would also be acceptable xD lol

Why not google photos?

It'll give you the ability to store things. categorize things. share folders... etc.

I remember hearing about an app called Snupps for collectors to showcase their collectables, but think it (or another similar app) might be helpful in your case. I've never used it, but imagine it would have ways to add hashtags or the like so that you could sort through and find what you need when you need it!

EDIT: Tried to delete this as I just noticed you asked for no apps. Sorry about that!

You could try Pinterest.  You can make your own "pins" with what you have and then anyone can look at them.  And then when you no longer have that fabric you could just delete the pin or make it private until you get some more.

I like Tumblr a lot personally because you can use tags but it sucks that you can only search one tag at once, and if you don't get the app that would limit it a bit in functionality.
I think Snupps only lets you put stuff into folders.
I was considering making a wikia for my collection because I think it's fun to have interconnectibility, but I don't think that would be the best option for fabric.

If you have a gmail account, you should be able to access it through that. I just tried with my desktop computer. :)  (I usually use my phone, since I take pictures with my phone and send them that way)
