Would it be possible to see some statistics for the sets?
"The most owned set by LUGNET members", "The best looking set ever,
acoording to members" and so on.

Kinda rough around the edges, but anyway:

   http://guide.lugnet.com/set/rank/

And it's updated once per hour.


Oh, and here is another one:
Is the window that "pops up" when klicking on the the set picture, supposed
to be almost the same size as the original picture?
Or is it dependant on the size of scanned setpictures (Some small, some
big)?

9 times out of 10 it's larger -- but it's always the original size of the
original image uploaded, so sometimes it might not be bigger (and in some
really funky cases it might even be smaller).

It's beautifull! Thanks!

BTW, do you ever sleep? Whenever i ask a question, you respond imediately. I
thought you were in the US, and considering the timezone you must be awake
24 hours a day ;-)

How long have you noticed that I consider the timezone when I am not awake 24
hours a day?

I have a problem understanding that sentence(translating to Swedish, still
learning). What I meant was, I allways check LUGNET for new messages,
between 7 AM and 1 AM Local time, and you are allways there... i'm in GMT+1,
first timezone in US eastcoast is GMT-4....
Just curious, maybe to much ;-)

In the category of wouldnt-it-be-nice-if-Todd-did-this ...

I really like the notes section in the sets database. I love reading these
notes and have been making an effort to write notes for sets I own to
contribute to this.

However, it would be nice to be able to get access to longer reviews than
can be written in one line. Currently reviews are all over the place, posted
as messages to all manner of lugnet groups as well as various people's
private WWW sites etc. Obviously including the complete reviews would
clutter up the database too much, but would it be possible for a note to
have an associated URL (as a separate field, not embedded in the note) to
provide a click to a larger review?

That way, the set database would be the entrypoint for any review that any
member chose to contribute without cluttering up the set database with the
reviews themselves. Then notes could serve as an "executive summary" of a
longer review, and interested people could follow the links to read the full
review.
