You don't have to use the ZIP.

: as well stick with the "one" store I

: Currently the state field has auto-completion,
: so,
: for example, if you type in an 'f' you might
: think, "Hey, are there really shops in the
: Federated States of Micronesia?"--but you'd
: be disappointed (No! ;-)
:
: Auto-completion is sexy, but it's slow and
: returns bogus choices, which tells me the main
: problem is that the Web master is lazy and would
: rather have canned software offer standardized
: choices instead of fine-tuning the offerings to
: the actual states that have shops.
:
: A better choice would be the good ol' pull-down
: menu: Not sexy, but fast and accurate.

: I do not like the way the store locator is done
: on
: the new factory page, i have no idea what the zip
: code of a lot of stores and it was much easier to
: go to the "State" stores are in and
: look for the information. I doubt if I well ever
: use it the way it is now. That is something the
: factory should go back to the way it was before.

: to be specific about what you like and what you
: dislike. For example, I don't like that I have to
: click twice for each entry to find the name,
: number, and price of the new releases, whereas in
: the old format that information was immediately
: obvious without any extra clicks. On the other
: hand, I'm really glad they are now noting the
: artist and the dimensions, something they never
: did before. You can now see all the color options
: of a piece, again something not previously
: available.
:
: I was also pleased to see they modified the shop
: locator page so you can now display all the shops
: in a state. That was really helpful!
:
: If they add the various annual gatherings, I
: believe they'll have all the information that
: they used to have, just in a different format
:
: I suspect they'd be open to suggestions for
: improvements, as long as we can do it in a
: positive way.

: Is it just me or does anyone else not like the

: thoughts?
