Hey, everyone. A user had requested this, so I figured I'd start one out. So what I'm going to do, is post the links to the ROM, and excerpts from the posts, IE Features. I'll clean it up and update it as I can, but it's a start. Devs, if you wouldn't mind PMing me your ROM and a features list, I will add it. Thanks!

Code:
•Chose your statusbar style, regular PhoneUI, Nexus7-PhabletUI or a combined TabletUI systembar. Choose from a variety of toggles and toggle layouts, switches, holo-buttons, toggles or icon-text-toggle rows.

•Get a ton of features on top of Cyanogenmod’s catalogue. Dabble with opacity, see-through options, eventualy colors, etc. 

•Our images and graphics are made by a dedicated artist, www.krebsmilk.de

•Hybrid mode is the heart and soul of paranoidandroid. Forget tablet mode or build.prop changes! Hybrid mode will not break your phone, your apps, your market, nothing will shrink or become unusable. Entire parts of AOSP have been rewritten to make this possible, you will not get anything like it anywhere, this is the only rom on Android capable of these things.

•Hybrid mode means you can control the size and the actual layout of any app individually. Keep in mind, apps bring their own layouts, they will display according to your device. That’s why apps like gmail, settings, youtube, camera, chrome, etc., transform completely when you run them on a tablet. This rom allows you to choose whatever layout you like best, we don’t fool around with DPI, we extract the actual layouts from your apk’s and you select them with a tap. Apply and you’re done. No reboot necessary. You can target anything: apps, system components, widgets, launchers, keyboards, statusbars, lockscreen, etc.

•Finetune your workspace or apply hybrid settings to all your apps if you don’t like to set them up individually. Individual settings will still override this so you can still get the look you want.

•For ease of use you can access hybrid properties in your recents view, this will allow you to quickly review changes. Basic things like recents, toggles, etc. have been made usable across all UI modes.

Yeah, I know the ATR is a good resource. But there's a few things that this would be useful for as well.

Mobile, like TT. Stickies is a different section on the site, and I know I forget to click it while on mobile ;)

Also, if the features are listed, the user can read the features, and then decide to go to said ROM with the features they want.

Edit: Ninja'd by mobs.

Though, I agree. XDA roms would be nice as well. I'll have to add one or two to that later.

Power Rom? (was using it til I found Unlocked Potential, though I do try the new ones that come along.. I just nandroid my current UP setup... then try the other... then if I like it I save anpother nandroid, then I have a few to go between lol)
I like the sense 4 based roms, like Viper, but I also like having my 3d camera fully working.. :>, every other rom has something missing, even if its something small... UP seems to be good so far)
