Hi,
I've just start my new project: to make full CCD catalog of VdB objects. Probably is not the new idea- I've seen something like that in T.Davis gallery, but the idea itself is very exciting smile
Pictures are just preview as they are cropped and resized from my full frame setup, but....it is just to show shape, colour and size. In the nearest future you will find list of constellations>drawing of constellation with marked positions of objects>object description with size and some comments.

Project started already. Some of the previews you can see there : http://www.astrofun.pl/index.php/ccd-vdb-catalogue
Enjoy!
