Searching a Collection by Player Name

As I look through my collection of thousands of cards, I would like to see an option of being able to search my personal collection. For example if I wanted to see what Nolan Ryan cards I have, or any other player, it would be cool to have a spot to type a name, or a search bar that applies to our personal collection only. 

I know that if I type Nolan Ryan into the search bars provided I will be given an auto generated list of 100 Nolan Ryan Cards, I then have to scroll through and see what I have on the list. However, the last time I did this it showed me 3 of the cards on the list of 100 I got auto generated. Where I know my collection of that player is over 30 cards. So I think it would be a good feature to be able to have a collection only search as well as the overall search.

Thanks for this feedback.  The only way right now is via overall search and seeing which cards are included.  I'll think about some possible ways to allow searching an entire collection.

Maybe there's a way to bring the cards in the person's collection to the search results first?

I really like this idea.  There are two main values that I see this app/service providing.  Those being card identification/costing and collection management.  This request falls in supporting the later.  Having this ability brings the level of enjoyment much higher as it would eliminate the frustration of scrolling endlessly for a card you know you uploaded.  Even if it were simple additional ways to filter the data, that would address this need.  In fact, any and all filtering/searching/managing data on our collection is my greatest desire for improvement.  Whether that is to roll up the data to all collections or down to a specific collection type.
