Ok, we need to clear this up. For James Bond films there are currently three different title formats being used:

James Bond: Octopussy
Octopussy
James Bond 007

Reviewing it all I think the best option is to name the page as per the individual film name (i.e. Octopussy), then use 'James Bond: Octopussy' on the Complete List etc.

Any major objections?

Assuming we get no other opinions and you feel that is the best thing to do, lets run with it.

Thanks Tim.

I'm not racing anyone because it would be quite annoying to have spent time doing captures and then find someone else has beaten you to it. I was about to do The World Is Not Enough but he can do the rest (looks like he's already done most of them), unless he gets bored. He could have cropped away the black borders on the captures though. :-/

No, you are right G-MANN. I am not sure the best way to approach this except to create the page and post an "announcement" like I did here: http://www.impdb.org/index.php?title=Iron_Man. Also, from now on, we do want to crop the black borders from the screenshots.

I am planning on doing the Living Daylights James Bond film, but only because I have some inside information on that one. I have put an announcement on that page, but I need to change the format of the title to what we have just decided on.

Clearly I have a bit much on my plate and may not get around to this one for a little longer. If there is anyone who would like to finish this page, let me know. I will remove my name.

Could anyone hellp me with the planes there and inserting the photos?

DC-3 is obvious.

Here you have all the planes to identify. The small rotor-propelled fighter is propably either Neiva Universal or Pilatus PC-7. Not sure. I would risk a statement that it is Neiva.

I noticed your page and am excited to see it come together!

I (and the rest of us) would love to help in anyway we can. What is it that seems to be the problem? Have you checked out the new users page yet? Just let us know what specifically we can do to help. Image

I get lost in posting the photos. I have provided the links for all the pictures needed, I would like somebody to organize everything :)

Your image problem is probably:

For pictures to be embedded they have to be uploaded to the site first. To do this click 'Upload file' from the left-hand side panel then upload the relevant picture. In the wiki page you can then use '[[image name]]' to place the picture on the page.

Hope this helps :)
