| | Posted: | | | | Looking at purchasing the four volumes of Chronical Donald from the Walt Disney Vaults and am concerned about how someone has contributed the layout as shown below.. You can't search any of these titles., plus they 'clutter up' the cast/ crew section.. I'd love to see these titles and years listed in Overview., that way if you are looking for one particle title (out of 100+ from the four volumes) you could do it on the 'fly' instead of manually reading these titles ' line by line" .  This is not a proper way to display these titles.. comments??  | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

| | Posted: | | | | Technically, these are a collection of theatrical shorts compiled onto a couple of disks. As such, it is well within the rules to separate each feature with a divider for cast and crew. That being said, it does look cluttered. |

| | Posted: | | | | So if a friend comes over and says his favorite all time Donald episode is the one where he is a BeeKeeper, But can't remember what year or if it is even available on DVD,, and you haven't watched your set in its entirety .. Your best and quickest bet is to search Google and don't waste your time looking thru all four of these Disney Treasures ..  So much for your prized Invelos profiler in your friends eyes...  | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

| | Posted: | | | | IMO we should deal with episodic films the same way we deal with TV shows. Therefore a simple list of episode titles may be added to the overview field.
IMO dividers which do not divide anything (empty cast lists) should not be used for this purpose. Of course if every episode has its own cast list, dividers containing the episode title should be used in addition to the episode list in the overview. |

| | Posted: | | | | I believe the idea here is for someone to eventually go back and fill in as many details as possible. For now it's just a list of titles. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection. |

| | Posted: | | | | Frankly, they're separate issues. The use of dividers for cast and crew has no bearing on whether to list the shorts in the overview. I'm not opposed to listing the shorts in the overview but you do get those cranky folks who vote no because no such list exists in the actual overview. |
