A Big Pet Peeve For Me Is The Airline Logos Do Not Represent Different Generations.

For Instance All My ANA Have The Current Livery Logo, But I Have Several Mohicans But The Database Still Uses The Current Logo.

United For Instance. I Hate The New Colors With A Passion, But The Logo Represents Just That. Where's The Grey? Saul Bass Or Mainliner?
Canadian Airlines Is another. Most Of My Models Are The 90s Landor Livery (Wings Over 5) But The Logo Used Is The Proud Wings.
British Airways Should Be Separate From The Negus Quarterjack (Red Tail)
Air Canada Has 3 Red Line Liveries, The White One & The Toilet Bowl Colors.
Delta. My God Where Is The Widget? I Got 20 Widgets & Only 3 Interim & 2 Wavy Gravy.
And On & On Please!

Thanks!

This has been noted many times before. The W900 team is very aware and will work to the best of our ability on this.

Ah, Already Inj The Works!
I'll add: EAL Had Different Color Tails Too. I've Seen The Logos Each Had A Different Color Square Box On One Side. I Can See This Feature Being A Nightmare For Braniff Though! Oh Worse If You Have a Different Tail Color For Each World Tail!
Alska Not Too Far Behind With Thier Many Liveries. Must Be Fun Categorizing The Themejets & Stuff.

You're in charge of finding and making missing logos. Braniff is pretty much covered, no different World Tails, and lacking Easterns...

Wow. Just Going Through It Quickly, Some Rather Pathetic Logos For Aer Lingus & Canadian. I Gott Better Ones Myself. Alaska Is Well Represented There Though...

Well then submit away and make them unpathetic. Also if you can make them 127x32 pixels it'll help expedite the process.

Thanks FD, Waffle, team members and Heavy. That peak Waffle gave us at the different logos already in the works was awesome!!

I just thought of something. Is there a way to disable certain columns such as "+/-", "Other" and "Sell". I never use them and I'm guessing that if I got rid of the excess information, my collection would load quicker. Maybe that could be one of the options in preferences - allowing us to enable or disable whichever columns we wanted to use.

It may be that this function is already available and that I am too neanderthal to work it out but I would like to sort my collection according to airline>scale>manufacturer. At present I can sort to 2 levels but not 3.

Would it be unrealistic to have thumbnail link to a photo of custom models if they have had a picture submitted in standard format to the database? It would be interesting to see other collectors customs.

I like Eherrans idea of being able to select which columns to display. If this were available, might it be possible to add a column for total cost which could be used to track actual purchase price of models? One of the initial strengths of this website when I first joined was the utility with which one can manage one's fleet. Whilst accepting FD's point on "ticket price" as an indicator to other collectors of unit cost, it would be useful for me to know, as a collector, how much I actually spend on my models including postage (significant for those of us outside the US) and international currency fluctuations.

In the search and add function, could a "multiple" function be added so that when more than one of the same model is purchased it could be entered "x3", "x2" etc. so that the whole process doesn't need to be repeated? (Useful for fleet builders and those stocking up on base models for conversion of for eventual sale or trade)

And a question: if I tick "private model" and my collection is enabled to be publicly viewed, can others see that model or does it simply mean that it is not earmarked "for sale or trade"?

No, only you see it and others who view your collection will not see it at all. It has nothing to do with the model being for sale and trade.

Doesn't this already exist in My Preferences?

As stated before, this is not currently planned. Not to blow you off, but our development resources are limited and things like Airline Logos are more important right now.

Good idea. However, I am not too sure what exactly how you would like this to work. When you enter a model, you select the quantity and it automatically inserts the specified number of models in your collection? Or do you want a single row with "X2" or "X3". Personally, when I have several models I don't mind having to go through the process as I ofter flag one as private and the others for sale/trade and so on.
