I do this already to some extent - not that I can get picures as such, but I am slightly anal about having the books arranged in an aesthetically pleasing way spine-wise. You have inspired me to go one stage further though + |

I can remember the size and color of a book better than the title or author, so that’s how I file them. It’s not a perfect system, of course... “It was a white book, large, I think...” And a year later, I find it under the sofa. And turns out it was a small book, with a red cover. |

Very good. Perhaps the Dewey system is a bit out-dated. |

I like the word "mosiac". Sounds like someone who is afflicted with a sauntering condition. |

So not a well read Messiah (moshiach)? + |

On a very large scale, the books could be arranged such that they formed another literary work. |

Personally, I file my books, variously, by novels or textbooks, author, series, world (Star Wars or Dragonlance for instance) or just "It's on the bookshelf. Maybe the floor. Maybe the bedside shelf. Maybe the bedside table/stool. Maybe the car..." |

[half]--that's for the uber bookcase mosaic-er. If you encounter such a thing, pray direct me to an image. |

[tsuka]-- me, I'd just be lazy and do a new subject from various creative works every time it got messed up, using the program. |

Apollo was the god who assisted Paris in the assassination of Achilles by arrow, you know (another version is that he did it himself). I guess that's what happens when intellectuals meddle in war...they do it the safe and smart way. |
