Stamp collection

A stamp collection is a collection of oscillators or perhaps other objects in a single image or file, displaying the exhibits much like stamps in a stamp album.

An example stamp collection, namely of 3-block-1-tub periodic 180-degree reflectors. From top to bottom, left to right: p4, using a middleweight emulator variant for higher clearance to allow glider input. p5, using a p5 pipsquirter. p6, using a p6 pipsquirter. P6 thumb can be used to reduce the population, and is used in Ocellus p7, using a thinner p7 pipsquirter variant, 34P7 can be used to reduce the population. The 34P7 variant is used in Gallus. p8, using a blocker. p10, using 55P10. p12, using Eye of Sauron. p14, using 34P14 shuttle. It can also be used in Gallus. p15, using Pentadecathlon. p22, using Jason's p22. p30, using buckaroo. p46, using Tanner's p46. (click above to open LifeViewer)
