[quote]There's something of a wall for Jem and the Hologram fans with the current set up tho. Popular will pull up a bunch of anime they don't care about, and Alphabetical will pull up a bunch of anime and a handful of other things they likely don't care about before what they do care about. Being bound to the creator got one Jem fan through,but I'm not sure the setup will work to get many others in her position through. [/quote]

Yes, yes, you win already. :) The trouble at this point is a) finding time to improve it (the redesigned gallery section is in the best shape atm, the others not so much) and b) making it easy enough so that the interface doesn't look like a maze of buttons.

Side note: I have a redesigned forum and tweaked a few other pages but haven't pushed out a patch yet.

You are correct that some will see Care Bears and turn and run. Basically, that's the flip side of my concern -- that people will see anime and turn and run.

How about we just say that the concern is that, "People will see (anime|cels|care bears|comic art|fanart|boobs) and turn and run because they were looking for something else in that same set instead."

Our goal is to encourage people looking for [type of collectible art] to also happily stumble across [related type of collectible art], but easily avoid [related but inappropriate collectible art] if they choose.

Not sure where to put this, so we'll put it here:

There seems to be a problem with the "Tenchi Muyo Galleries" listing page... occasionally the numbers at the bottom of the page (indicating the number of pages of galleries that are available) get jumbled out of order.
Not so much a problem as an oddity, perhaps.

Edit: The "Trigun Galleries" numbers are kind of messed up, too.

That's bizarre. It's possible that something I did locally affected that. I'll check it out.

In other news, just added all those shows. Maybe that's what caused it... I was doing it just now. added 11 titles.

(they lack pictures, which i hope we can all ignore for now :) )
