The chess.com community has been amazing, and treated me very well. As an amature I can't always repay the kindness. However, I was thinking it would be perhaps useful for this forum section to have an actual openings catologue. So this is my effort.
If I can make it better let me know. I have a lot of down time right now.

NOTE TO MODERATION, this is an idea, before I go ahead and finish it out, I want to be sure that it is OK to do this, and that I won't have a plagerism issue. Waiting for verification before I continue.
