Default DAC Releases Wish/Want List!

DAC is proud to introduce the all new Wish/Want List! Now you can keep track and budget the models that you want in your collection but haven't purchased yet. Even better, we've setup a system to automatically find those users that have the models for sale, instant messaging, and even a way to make a list of models you'd like to see made!

On top of that we've completed a few other tweaks/fixes to My Collection!
