Yes. It helps to know what you have and what you need. I'm fairly low-tech and use word documents or excell, but am starting to work on digital photo albums. I didn't have a great camera when I started so I didn't take too many pictures, now I have a lot of work to do.Plus you may want to insure your collection someday.Unless you keep all your accessories with your ponies I would list the miscellaneous items separately. Grouping suggestions: playsets and their accessories, accessories that came with a pony (alphabetically by pony name, including year/set if necessary for rereleases), ponywear (G1 is about the only one this is for), & merchandise by type (fabrics, electronics, puzzles, books/movies, paper/office/party supplies, etc.).
I agree. For weeks now, I've been searching for some form of a checklist. One which I could easily print out and then check all the ponies I have. Many collecting fandoms have those in SPADES (like the Transformers and G.I. Joe ones), so it's high time MLP got something similar.It'd be really cool if someone, with computer/web design skills, created something similar to Shmax.com, which Transformer fans use as a form of a "checklist". Sure, Shmax.com has it's own flaws and such, but at least it's quite effective as website.
I'm a fan of excel files so I have lots listing all sorts of different things. You can search through them too. It takes a little while to get familiar with all the tools but once you know what you're doing it's very useful Link to accessory file in my siggy.
