Amber, this is a terrific idea...it would be especially helpful to new creators, since there are any number of questions that are hard to find answers to, like the binning codes, etc. I am NOT the person to do it, since I don't know jack about it.
Thanks, and the thing is, these days there's utilities or SimPE plugins that can do practically everything I mentioned quickly and easily. It would just be a matter of getting them into peoples' hands from the very beginning, along with the message "This is how this is done."

Just for the record, some other items I'd put on such a list, if I were to compile it?
- Bin your hair...
Remove extraneous age categories. Provide ONE gray for elders. (Many don't even give you a gray color. Others give you 4). "Family" the hairstyle by using the same GUID on all the colors.
The sad part is just as we finally have the right tools to do everything correctly, Sims 3 will be released and we will have to start all over again.

It needs to be less by type of item (because that will get insane) and more by... I guess "slot" is the best word.
like, 2 hand slots, a head slot, and so forth.
Now, there should be at least 3 slots on each hand- nails, rings, held items- and definitely multiple head slots- ears, hair, eyes, nose, lips, horns- but you get my drift. Rather than classify, say, wedding bouquets and guns differently, they're both in the "held item - right hand" bin or whatever.

I've actually considered doing this for quite a while, so if you actually do start this, I'd be interested in helping. :P

Actually, I really like this idea a lot...
So... lesse here...
Slots:
Left foot (I seem to recall seeing toenail accessories, but I may be wrong)
Right foot
Left ankle (Ankle bracelets)
Right ankle
Hip (belts and such)
Butt
Chest
Back (Wings, backpacks, etc)
Shoulders (Shoulderpads, wings that sit higher up on the body)
Left Arm
Right Arm
Left Wrist
Right Wrist
Left Hand
Right Hand
Left Fingers
Right Fingers
Neck (Necklaces and such, but maybe we should have 3 neck slots?)
Neck 2
Neck 3
Chin
Mouth/Lips
Nose
Right Eye
Left Eye
Forehead (I've seen a bandaid for a head wound before that they binned separately to sit on the forehead)
Top of Head
Side of Head (Horns)
Back of Head
Left Ear Attachment
Right Ear Attachment
Ear Attachments
Ears
I think that's it... did I miss anything?
Magicmoon:
Would tails go on the back or hips, or should we also have a butt category?
