Is 2021 finally the year I digitize my collection?

I’ll probably say yes and just never follow through like I do every year...

Are people just taking digital photos instead of scans these days? It seems way less invasive, and an easier way to deal with oversized pieces.

I bought a scanner since I do not have an area with adequate lighting to just take photos, I will always have that glare.

I have a few items that slipped out of the usual scanning order and still need to be done. But I don't regret the time that I've taken to image,describe,and inventory my collection. It is a daunting task, but taken a little at a time as a collection grows, it becomes easier and more and more useful. I do admit using my Rubberslug gallery as a more easily searched and graphic-intensive alternative to my spreadsheets (and especially my archive boxes and cel portfolios). But I do now have a pretty good idea of what all I have and where I can find it.
