No problem, I'll add the ability for the chart author to view their own private chart 'normally'.

Yeah, I was really anticipating breaking into people's private charts and uncovering their deep dark secrets.

Does that mean if you saved those numbers from someone's chart on your computer somewhere, and they later made their chart private, you could still view it? XD Or does it not work that way?

You can already do this.

When you click "edit chart", look at the url. You see those numbers at the end? Copy those.

Now exit out and go view your overall chart normally (or any public chart really). You see those numbers at the end of the url? Erase those, and paste the numbers you copied from your private chart. Hit enter, and voila.

No problem. I also like to see how things look that way. Maybe albummaster can set up a simple "view chart" link next to the lock sign or something.

Oh, thanks! It wasn't the most obvious thing to figure out, not to me anyway, and maybe a little difficult, but it was very useful. Very cool that you had figured it out. Thanks a lot!

I had this thought too.

Whilst I wanted my chart to be private but I lost being able to see how diverse my chart internationally and chronologically, which is helpful when seeing where to listen next. I had to resort to making my chart public.

It's no necessity, but it'd be nice to have.

A little suggestion: when your charts are private, they're, for you, only visible in the somewhat messy edit mode. I'd like to be able to view my private charts with the 10 albums per page and all the neat opportunities to filter the albums after band/decade/country. I have a couple of charts that I don't intend to show others (hopefully, they're also quite uninteresting for others than me), so what I'm hoping for is one day to be able to keep them private and avoid making them public just to have a better overview of the different albums.
