@Doits

My graphics card broke down on my now very old computer, so I need to piece together a new one, then I'll try to catch up with all this stuff.

Awesome thread! I definitely think we should keep some kind of a central, printable chord collection that's easy to add to. I don't know if my old finale file is the best way to go.

In my head I have a vision of a web applet/database to which members can easily submit chords, sort of like on this thread. These could then be sorted/categorised by key, palo, special context, tuning, comments etc. members fluent in theory could correct spellings etc. It could be built upon musicXML and generate nice printable charts. It would need some housekeeping though, to keep it useful and relevant. If there are some java programmers here, perhaps we could do it. I wouldn't like to do it all by myself, because It would be a lot of work.

It would be important that people would actually use it.

Has anybody actually gone through all these yet? There's some great stuff here.
My favorites so far are Romerito's Alegrias chord and Stu's first chord. They sound great together actually.
I gotta rest my left hand for a while now
