When adding a new toy, the "Toyline" tree at the very top doesn't seem to be working. When I click on the "Select" option, nothing happens. I have to open a listing for another toy from that line to get the numeric code for the series.

The sort feature doesn't seem to be working in the "Missing Information" section. No matter how you choose to sort, the list stays in the same arbitrary order it came up in when you first load the page.

What's everyone's opinion on those twisty CFC bulbs? Are they any good for photography? I've got a few in my bathroom and they're bright as all get-out.

I found mine at Target. It's a "GE Reveal". I believe HS uses those, too--not sure about Engledogg and Wallas.I didn't see those last time, but I'll check again. I found GE Reveal bulbs but not lamps.

Sounds good. Regarding the height, I can tell you that I'm starting to think that 30" was too tall, and am considering shortening it. Most of the toys I'm shooting are so much smaller than that that I lose a lot of light from the top to attenuation. How tall is that Megalo Convoy? I'll bet even he falls far short of 30". Of course, you need some slack so that the there's room for the light to fill the box...That's a good point. I'll have to measure him.
Any recommendations on where I can find 200W lamps? My local Radio Shack had bupkiss.

Glad I can help with the data, if not the photographs (yet).
I'm taking the lamps and bedsheet back today, and I'll hit Radio Shack to see if they have the lamps I want.
I picked up some sheets of 20x30 foam core at Pearl, and I was going to make a 20x20x30 light box. Think that'll be too big? (I do have a Megalo Convoy with box to photograph.)

After some prodding from Shmax ( ) I'm building a light box so I can contribute photos to this fine website. Hopefully some of you veteran photogs can throw some opinions and answers my way.
First up: The desk lamps I bought say I shouldn't put in any bulbs higher than 60W. Should I heed this advice and try to find lamps that can handle 200W, or is this just the lamp manufacturer covering their ass?
Speaking of bulbs, the 200W GE Reveal bulb I bought is labeled as a "reader" light and is white instead of clear like the other two wattages. Should I look for a clear-glass 200W bulb, or will this be okay?
Thirdly: I bought a cheap 250 thread count bedsheet to cut up to diffuse the light from the lamps. Good idea? Bad idea? Is there a better kind of cloth I should use?
