Wondering if we might establish a deck plan repository here to share the vast wealth of material that have disappeared though out of print publications or websites now defunct.

I like the idea of having a deckplan reference. You can put partial images of the deck plans, either one part of a cropped image or shrunk to unreadability, for reference purposes. You can't upload the entire deck plan unless you have the author's (or in this case the artist's) permission.
There are some limitations on uploads (5MB), and it might be neat to have them all in one format (SVG for example).
But if you have some examples to start, we can create some categories and template to make finding them easier. Tjoneslo 20:10, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
