This is just the program I need to categorize my cel/sketch collection and wishlist. So far I see no negatives except I haven't found a way to input my buys as japan yen(it's minor anyway due to the shifting exchange rate over the years). But I love the organization options this program gives me and how I can see my total spent on everything(by category or all together). Though, I'm kinda scared to see my total spent when I complete it now as I've only uploaded roughly 10% of my collection to it and it's already past 2k

Anyway, are there any other programs similar to this?

Yea it's an app for the mac. Cost $15, but from what I can tell, it's worth it.

OMG! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!!! Thank you so much Majinuub!
You have no idea how much time I've been spending cataloging my cel collection over the past two years! I think I would pay $50 for this program.

You guys are funny ... that's just a fancified database program -- you get this kind of ability if you own the right copy of MS Office. My PHP gallery software also does exactly this if I put how much I paid for my artwork into it when I update my gallery. It will total everything up on request and lets me view it in a printable format, too (only viewable to the gallery administrator, of course). It can break down by section or whatever you like, almost

. I love looking at how much money I've spent on Gundam Wing cels. It's so insane it almost makes me cry.
If you own MS Office with a program called MS Access, you don't need to pay $50 for something like this -- you can easily create your own database to track anything like that, too. Programs like this have been around for ages!

Well for those who doesn't have MS Office or a MAC but just like the idea of a home inventory that is highly customized. Might I suggest data crow? I have no affiliation with this website/owner however I have used the program for a few years and they actually have been updating the program.

I wanted an offline program that provided some way to sort through my collections(not just artwork). Sure I paid for it but I mainly posted to see if there are similar programs to this, that's all...
