Looking forward to the update!

Can the site be hosted or a part of the Acaeum?

I look forward to the revamped site, excellent!

Can I suggest additional details on binding variations?  E.g. some of the 2.5 books came in SC and HC;  it'd be nice to know which ones came in both bindings.  I'm still trying to find out if a few came in SC, like Council of Wyrms for example.  Just because I can't find it on eBay doesn't mean it didn't come that way!  

Thanks!

This will be fantastic!  Personally, I believe that the only content that the original TSR Archives webpage was missing, was a Marvel Super Heroes section!  I'm looking forward to checking it out!  Thanks

Thanks all!  I'm excited about getting it going again.  It's funny that you should mention the background, as I was playing around with some last night.  I was thinking about something darker and less patterned that will help text and logos pop a little better.  It's all still a work in progress at this point so any suggestions or ideas are welcome.

One possibility is to put all the logos onto buttons, or a plaque-like tab, similar to the plates on trophies. You can then keep a more busy background if you prefer.

The dark background swallows the logos you are presenting. Need to make the logos pop more against the background.

Used the site a lot. Great work.

Since you were asking, I'd personally prefer the "oldschool" Gamma World logo that is associated with most of the line's desirable products.

I don't think that either Scott or myself are ready for the headache of trying to integrate the two sites.  Our inherently different mission statements probably wouldn't mesh that well anyway.  The TSR Archive was always intended to be more of a checklist/parts list.  While it notes different printings, that's definitely not a big area of focus.  And I'm definitely not interested in trying to track values on any of this stuff... that's WAY too much work!  That being said, if the public demanded it, I suppose it's an option that could be explored.

In the meantime, I do have a little something up and running at (cleverly enough) tsrarchive.com!  It's all very beta right now... playing around with different graphics and formats.  Most everything is just in the list stage at this point but I do have a few smaller sections with actual links up.  Feel free to take a look and let me know if you love it or hate it.   Nothing's set in stone, but I like a lot of things about the new format.

Have you given thought to including back-cover scans in the TSR Archive?  For some reason I thought they were already there in your pages, but when I went to TSR Archive as well as on archive.org, I didn't find back cover scans.
