Yes one negative - popups (one at least) they are evil, don't use them. If I am buying parts why would I want to look at magazines?, How about other related parts or the always fun: other people that have purchased these have also purchased blah blah blah...

My two cents...invoice is in the mail ;)

That popup only comes at the end, when you are checking out - we sell a lot of magazines when people toss them into their order...

No picture for Coupe Rear Window Seal item #28 in the "911 & Carrera Seals & Weatherstripping" section.

Yes, leave it to me to find the ONE thing missing...
I guess I could walk out to the garage and look at my seal but its too darn cold outside here.

Looks fantastic Wayne. Great job. My wife has a small site that I built. I'm a technical guy (run Cisco stuff for a living), but I hate anything remotely like programming. I know how long it took me to make my wifes pages with maybe 150-200 items, I can't imagine the work you must put in with what I can only guess must be several thousand sku's.

Great job, thanks.

Also icon images of seals (click to enlarge) do not launch or enlarge.

Looks good on OSX Safari.

Nice, dense design. No nonsense.

Is there a way to make the quick links on the side show where you are in the pages?

For example, when you are on page 3, it would highlight the related quicklinks, so you would know if you need to keep going to get to whatever you're looking for.

OK, here's a nit...

What's the light source on the page? The use of drop-shadows is to add the illusion of depth. This just makes no sense.

Wayne, looks great....clear product pics especially. Any way to include a link to a diagram (if available)? This may help a customer visualize the project and prompt them to order "while I'm in there" stuff.

Do you have a pop-up blocker? They are designed to open in a new window.

Most products have links to diagrams or pics?

Good point, I just put this on my list to fix. I was being lazy here...

Hmm, yes I could do that, but I'm not sure exactly what benefit that would give? Can you explain what you mean a bit more?

Nearly 100% sorted for Firebird, props to you Wayne ;)

Not sure what this (mozilla specific) black line is though:

When I posted that, I was under the mistaken impression that everything on the left was everything in the section, so when you clicked on a page, you would see where you were in listing. I think something changed (functionally) between the old version and the new version, I can't put my finger on it.

I was looking at the seals as well and it seems that there is stuff missing between the numbers 40-something and 70 something. I couldn't find the side seals for my Targa.

RickM 12-30-2003 09:22 AM

Sorry, I didn't explain well enough. I meant a link to an exploded view where the referenced part is part of an assembly in the diagram. You'd be able to use the same diagram for any of the parts in the assembly.

I suggest this because many time I've discovered parts are missing, installed improperly after referencing either another assembly or a diagram.
