Folks,

We'd like to categorize the robot/invention photos that have been uploaded to
legomindstorms.com.  I've come up with a tentative list of categories that I
wanted to show the group before we begin the process of tagging the existing
collection.  Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Ummmm, WELCOME!
 
<snipped many good categories>

> Interesting senso

I am assuming a mailer problem or you forgot the "r" at the end... :-)

Will users be able to categorize their own inventions, and will there
be more than one category per invention?

If I look at my mazewalker, I can thing of about 4 categories for it...

Cheers,

Yes, users will be able to categorize their own inventions, putting their
creations in up to 4 or 5 categories.
