Slightly OT... Good Lounge guide?

I find myself in airports more and more lately and have a good handle on BA Lounges, but I've been trying to track down an independent site/blog/forum that has traveller reviews/pics/discussions of other airport lounges. I've found several ok sites, but nothing very thorough... This Forum has spoiled me in terms of quality of information, and I'm looking for something similar. Am I just missing it? Just as today's example, I can't find any real info on the "new" VIP lounge at PVR...

I'm looking for a site with:

Good search function
Cross referenced by airline and airport
Traveller reviews/posts/discussions
Reviewer pictures
Independent & third party lounge (VIP, Priority Access, etc.)

The following have good basic info on lounges, but they are not complete and don't have good search functions.

http://www.loungeguide.net/wiki/u/Main_Page

http://www.airlinequality.com/Product/Lounges.htm

Huge apologies if I have just missed the obvious.

Thank you!

Hmmmm... 139 views and no responses. I'm guessing this means there isn't a top notch site/thread on lounges??

Anyone want to start one? Be a good way to break into the travel blogsphere... :-)

Might not tick all the boxes but it's a start... The BA Lounge Database

I think the projects that have tried this have all fizzled out.

Have a look at http://www.loungeguide.net/wiki/u/Main_Page and https://www.quickbase.com/db/bbqnbyntr for examples.
