Hmm... mixing your suggestion and the previous sugestion might just work... Having the interfaces described by colors, and the rest in columns with checks/X's might be neat.
: Why not include a legend at the bottom and simply list each project with a little colored block next to it for certain features such as keyboard hack, includes trackball, or whatever?
: : : As for additional info, how about a table? The left most column can include the name as a link to the page, with columns for # of players, monitor type (TV, arcade monitor), standup/cocktail, trackball, spinner(s), steering wheel/yoke, and maybe a column for extra info, like "the monitor rotates" or "uses removable control panels". I think this would make the information provided on the page a lot more useful, and once it's done this one time, it would not be a big deal to have new "owners" submit the required information to you.
: : Hmmm. that wouldn't take as long to load, as most of the info is represented by X's, but what about the interfaces they use? How could that be best represented? A good number of people starting a project want to find pages on the interface they plan to use, seeing what others think of that interface (SideWinders, PSX pads, KE72, etc).
