or Frustrated with comic book cataloging programs

I have been using the same program for the past three years to catalog my comic books. However, the one thing I do not like about it is that it has no separate entity for my graded comic books. There are areas that have if you want, need it, or for sale. There is also an area for condition which is where I enter the grade, including if it is CGC or not. The app for my phone does not separate this, nor does the program itself. I wish there was a program that would also discern if the book is graded or not, especially with all these multimillion dollar sales on auctions.

Mind you, there may very well be another program out there that does this, just not the one I use. I am also frustrated because after doing my best to take pictures of my collection, the program will randomly turn the picture around ninety degrees. I can't seem to figure out why it does this sometimes and not others. In their defense, the programs creators are trying to figure out why this is happening as well. At times I almost feel like starting over from scratch. Have one for my Graded books and another program for my ungraded books, but that seems extreme.

On another note I have finally decided on the next set to start collecting. This set was one of those titles that didn't last long and I didn't find out about it until the Secret Wars was over. I think not only will I try to complete a full run of this graded by CGC, but I think I might try to purchase them all raw so I can read them too. It is safe to say that if you read my journals then you know I collect the New Mutants. This has and will be my first priority. I have started a few other sets and this new set I have decided has nothing to do with any other set. I decided to pick the Thing as my next set. There is something absolutely loveable about Benjamin J. Grimm that even Frank Sinatra would call him Old Blue Eyes. It's a small set, then, after that Maybe Rom, or the Human Fly.

Thanks for Reading

PS. I decided to start a memoir and would like to take a census if anyone would mind if I tried a single Chapter out on the journals. Thank you.
