I'd get rid of one redundancy right away: Marketplace vs Market search. I'd say 6-7 times out of 10 I wind up in Market Search first when I want to search for a vendor, then it's, "Oh, yes. That's right. You can't search by vendor in Market Search; you have to go and search 'Marketplace' without the 'search'".
I never understood why the vendor search option wasn't considered a part of the search function and had to be in an unrelated tab.
Mostly I don't have any trouble with the tabs; I've gotten used to them. But Renderosity definitely seems 'click-happy' as a general characterization, I'd agree. The company seems to have the philosphy, 'why do with one click when you can have two!'
Promo Images on the slideshow, for example, never seem to display satisfactorily whatever computer I'm on. In Firefox they're always slightly too big, and if I want to see a promo I have to use the up arrow or down Arrow keys which is annoying. Or right click on each image, one at a time to open them from a separate tab, which is what I wind up doing if I'm moderately interested in a product. That's typically 8-9 tabs and clicks that I view individually. Since they went to the active slideshow fomat I always felt it was slick but not all that helpful.
Previously all I had to do was scroll down the page to see all the images, and right click if I wanted to archive the promos to disk to keep with the download of my files purchase. Less slick, but heck of a lot faster.
If they had a slide show that worked 'properly' and where I could right click or save all the promos at once as individual jpegs to my machine, I'd go for that. Slick and useful.
