Adding game info yourself?

I was just wondering - how does one go about adding info for games on one's own system? I have a nice bundle of indie PC games hooked into my GameEX, as well as some homebrew / hacks for some consoles. Adding these to the database would probably be futile or otherwise a bad idea. Is there a way I can add this info myself?

Another question - can I have an emulator use the info for multiple systems? I have the Genesis / CD / 32X in my install as one system, and I'd like to see info for Sega CD and 32X games, too.

One way would be to copy one of the databases for a console. Delete all data from that one, then input the games and info you have/want to see. Create an emulator and use .lnk files as the "rom" and then turn on database support. As long as the .lnk name is the same as what you have in the database, it should populate all data you enter.
