We present an online database of circumstellar disks that have been spatially resolved either in scattered light, thermal dust continuum or molecular line emission. Providing a complete list of both first generation (e.g., T Tauri, HAeBe and YSO) and second generation (e.g.,debris) disks, circumstellardisks.org provides a sortable database of the basic stellar and disk properties for systems with known spatially resolved disks (e.g., spectral type, R band magnitude, distance, disk size, inclination, and how well resolved the disk is). In addition, each object is linked to a more detailed page which provides a list of references, linked to ADS, that either discuss the resolved disk or have unresolved measurements of the disk at wavelengths greater than 1 micron. As of February 2007, there are 99 spatially resolved circumstellar disks, 86% of which are around pre-main-sequence objects. Of the 80% of systems with modeled disk inclinations available, 15% are in an edge-on configuration, with inclinations greater than 85 degrees, whereas 6% have face-on disks with inclinations less than 5 degrees.
