@Wyldanimal - yes, a simple text menu would work but the options that I and @Dfner have been talking about would, I feel, be a better cognitive fit with the way the My Collection tab is used to visually browse the models.
I do, however, like the idea of using a carousel to display the cards for a particular model or indeed as way of displaying any selection of cards, e.g. those selected by applying a filter or in a playlist, provided that the number of cards is not too big. An alternative might be something like the previews "line up" which could handle more cards by making it horizontally scrollable.
I occassionally use the search box to mimic what you are suggesting.
The software will already display a list of the models in your collection as part of the collection summary that you get when clicking on your own icon for a previous post, it would be nice if you could go from there to a display of her cards.
But @Gkar45 is right, it is not obvious that it would be worthwhile for Totem to anything elaborate so this is straying from the intent of this thread and would be more appropiate in the "Ideas and Suggestions" area of the forum.
