Realized that after getting it all together (and I've added a couple more
since the posting!) so I'll break it down by shape of flat area. I thought
about smaller images, but since it's a visual index, one needs to be able to
examine the picture even with small monitors and/or high resolution.
Hopefully fewer images per page will solve the problem.

True! I didn't think about them having special baseplates at all. I'll go
back to the LUGnet database on this one.

Boy, that's a big list. I started at Tim Vattima's inventories, but yes,
there's quite a few sets that aren't there. I've never seen a 16x16 driveway
plate... could you point me to an example?

Sounds good - look for them in Phase II. I think I'll concentrate on getting
what I have more usable first.
I'd love to have your list if you attempt it again. Thanks for your help!
Cheers, Heather
