From a comparitive list thus far, this is what I have arrived at as far as opinion: Pros: The Market Place is quite a bit faster now compared to the galleries here. Cons: 1.) Please lose the baby on the first page, it's annoying. Please Let's go directly to the MP. I'm here to shop and research, not start a virtual family and rejoice about rubber infants. 2.) Allow the user to shift the menu from right to left in options. I dislike my menu on the left side as I'm right handed. 3.) Upon pulling up a product page; I dislike the fact the price is below the first promo picture now. You force us to look at stuff before we know we can afford or even want. Most of the stuff we don't. 4.) Where are the wishlists??? Come on now, you don't think I'll buy everything you want me to upon first glance?? Give us some time, and perhaps we will fill your coffers. 5.) Customized menus. I want to see shortcuts that I'm only intersted in, not what you force me to see. My world isn't yours, and vice versa. 6.) Did I mention wishlists??? Public and Private! This way we can monitor sales, receive gifts, and get organzied. But I'm sure you would rather want us scatterbrained and oblivious to pay full price on everything. 7.) I really miss "My Gallery" rolldown on the top to quick access IM's and my "life" here. I feel very isolated by this new store, like it's a subset of the site and I need to go to "galleries", then select mine. Too much trouble...I'll be in my gallery if ya' want me. 8.) My Perchase/Gift History is nothing but numbers, no names. I'm supposed to know that order #1982719872 is an order from orion1167??? I'm pretty good with numbers, but you riddle me with that one. You give us too much credit with memory. 9.) You never asked for user input with this endeavor, but just went through with it, as always. Great, the MP is a bit faster, but in disarray. You only have 300,000 users on this site, you can't ask for a survey?? 10.) I'm not buying anything here until these issues are cleared up. Period. It looks more like a flea market than anything viable in the real world. And we are talking real, right? Wating for galleries to be erased next -Shardz-
