I have also posted a reply in the 'Comments' section under that suggesting that a similar thing should also be done for world banknotes as well,as banknotes are just as popular as coins are.

When our site was attacked, I reinstalled many files but not everything was brought back up 100% because of how I stored the backups on my hard drive. Bragger profiles once again show links to everyone's collection links. I believe the gallery should be working for everyone's coins but I need to run a few tests and then add that to profile pages as well. In order for there to be member pages with gallery pics like that for banknotes, I'll have to create a banknote database. I've been planning on that since 2006 but I've got a few more things to do to CoinBrag first. There's going to be a big change done to our database and once that is complete then I will be open to creating the banknote database. :) | ||

If you did that,you could have a link to CoinBrag on there,plus a link to BanknoteBrag on here,this giving collectors the best of both worlds. You could do a similar thing to what is on http://www.zeno.ru ,but allow for only banknotes & postal orders to be uploaded. Aidan. The program that is used is from http://www.photopost.com | ||

It would look virtually the same. I am actually thinking that I will be able to set it up so that accounts will be global in the sense that you would need to register on both sites. There would be new bragger token totals, but I would create a new "global total" that would show the total earned for all sites. This would enable new paper currency collectors to gain their own recognition without being dwarfed by those of us who've already added lots of coins here. At the same time, those of us who worked hard on coinbrag, won't lose anything and will likely dominate the ranks globally and continue locally on this site. Before I create that second site, I want to create "classes" This thread here explains some of what I am planning to add: here. I've been planning that out for quite some time. When I get that done and a few other things, then I'll be ready to clone CoinBrag. :) | ||

Posthumous Issue coins,such as those struck in 1901,1910,1936,& 1952 in the name of the preceding monarch would need to be classed separately,as does the Canadian 1936 Dot & 1947 Maple Leaf emergency coinages. Of course,the constitutional status at the time of striking would also need to be taken into account,such as the coins of Guyana & Malta,which had coins struck under both the Dominion & the Republic using the same basic design.

When I get the framework for the classes I will definitely be looking for help. Class is probably a bad choice of words, "type" is probably more appropriate. If you look through a coin catalog like Krause's you see that they give different catalog numbers for similar coins with slight variances, and I plan to have similar with our site...plus a little bit extra. :) I don't have an ETA on it. I am hoping that I can get some major progress done on this this month but I don't expect too much to be achieved in the next two weeks. | ||

Just wanted to throw that out there, I would support it 100% and help out as much as possible with the few resources I have available. Thanks for the wonderful site and lets hope the future is even better. | ||

The only thing is, I already have the database built for CoinBrag and all the pictures are organized in a way that I could not easily adapt another gallery into it. The gallery we have now is horribly basic. It sorts only by most recent uploads. There is a lot that can be done to it. The piwigo gallery looks pretty good though, I use their layout as a reference when it comes time to build a prettier and more advanced gallery. Thank you for sharing! | ||

I have not been able to do much to this site either over the past two months but I plan to do some work to this site in the next week and over the rest of this month. I am getting excited about coins and CoinBrag again. :) | ||
