Re: Collection Database Website interest?
Need to see if I am making sense.
Ok so right now if a collectible is missing you go in and add it, filling out a bunch of information and uploading a picture, yadda yadda.
If the collectible you are adding is a variant, which would be any type of variant or an exclusive you go through a slightly different process. You select the collectible it is a variant of then fill out slightly other information.
The part I am contemplating what to do is collecting the data about what makes this collectible an exclusive or a variant.
Currently I am thinking you would add a series of "accessories" that detail why this collectible is different. Such as a print, or a switch-out part or a different paint job. I foresee that being a drop down, then after you select an accessory depending on what type it is you might fill out more information.
For example, if you selected "switch-out" then you might be given another drop-down where you can select hand, head, etc.
From there, you might get a third input field for a description but that might get complicated fast.
You would be able to add multiple "accessories" per variant.
If possible I really want to categorize exclusives because I could see that being useful for searching on later and that way the data is more organized but it might get complex trying to cover every situation.
I bring this up now because this type of behavior and functionality is going to play into the whole storing of customs and bashes.
Does that make sense and/or does anyone have thoughts on the topic. Does it seem too complicated or would it be worth it?
