How do you organize your cards?
Mine are currently organized by:
Rares: Non Type 2 in one binder, Type 2 rares in one binder, I have Mirrodin block in a binder and Ravnica/Guildpact in a binder..
Then the commons/uncommons are in 5k boxes, most are sorted by color and common/uncommon. Mirrodin, Champions, and Ravnica blocks are sorted by set then color and rarity.
What my current plan is is to sort everything preferably by Set, then Rarity, then Color. So I can have all the cards from Ravnica by Rarity, and then color. So when you open a binder, I have all the White Rares from Ravnica, then Blue Rares from Ravnica, ect... then White Uncommons from Ravnica, ect.. But the best way to make sure I have every card either with an empty spot for cards I don't have or to have some type of order is to alphabetize them, so I would need some type of print out. I've seen dealers with binders of printouts of their real binders, I'd like to do something like this, so I can take a 9 pocket page and have a card printout on backside of it, and then put cards in the front. Doing this I think may be difficult so I was hoping someone might have either a program, or a suggestion for a way to do this. It will ofcorse take quite some time, so paper and ink isn't really an issue, I intend to use a high volume lazer printer to print the pages of cards, I just gotta have cards to print.
Thanks,

I only own about 150 cards that I don't plan on keeping indefinitely, so I just put them all in a tiny box. Rares in sleeves, everything else loose (but sorted by set and collector number, even the commons).

By and large, my team sorts by set, and then alphabetically. Rares tend to either be in decks or trade binders. Also, LASER is an acronym. I realize there'z a tendency for Americanz to replace 's' with 'z', but zometimez the 's' iz there for a reazon  .

While you wont have a pic, Ultra pro just release new 9 pocket pages that have a white strip above the pocket to write on. I am thinking of getting them for my "keepers" binder so I can know what I am missing or what is in a deck if the pocket is blank. j

The problem with that is, I'd have to write a lot... i'd rather just print out the card list and tape them to the pages...

I've got a large binder filled with rares and chase uncommons, sorted by color, then chronologically by set and then alphabetically. Everything else is strewn somewhere between my dorm, and one of the other two houses.

I have 1 binder that has all T1 playable cards (rares, uncommons and commons), sorted by colour. And a box of crap, mostly with boosters I won, cause I only tend to buy the stuff I need which ends up in the binder. I don't have that much cards, so there is no need to sort them alphabetically by casting cost and type... I have a photographic memory anyway, so I know where each card in the binder is.

No room in the house exceeds a length of twenty-five feet, let alone fifty feet, let alone fifty-six and a half feet, and yet Chad and Daisy's voices are echoing, each call responding with an entirely separate answer. In the living room, Navidson discovers the echoes emanating from a dark, doorless hallway which has appeared out of nowhere in the west wall.
