(god help me, it's even making my cursor 
vibrate!  Turn the dang thing OFF!)

Here are mine.  The tone is not to be taken 
seriously, but the annoyance is real.

For the love of Pete:

1) If the last time you updated a section in your 
store was a year ago, you can TAKE DOWN the 
dancing "New!" logo!

2) It IS possible to alphabetize things, so that 
your buyers aren't getting even more myopic 
trying to sift through series listings.

3) I'm very happy that you have a sub-selection 
of really nifty cels from various series (as 
opposed to just the regular run-of-the-mill grade 
cels) but it would be SO much nicer to see all of 
what you have from a series in ONE place!  I'm 
ever so much more likely to burn what's left of 
my paycheck at your store if I don't have to go 
on a serious scavenger hunt just to figure out 
what you have.

4) Unrelated peeve:  Updates that trigger keep 
track just because a) someone bought a cel; b) 
you did a review of a DVD (I really don't care 
what YOU think, I'll decide on my own, thanks) 
but you don't have any new cels; or c) announce 
auctions on eBay.  I think I can manage to search 
eBay on my own, thanks.

and finally -- and this goes for everyone, even 
myself:

5) Just because you CAN do something with a 
computer, doesn't mean you SHOULD!!  Letters that 
follow my cursor around the screen just piss me 
off.  Forty-five waving dancing grinning icon 
things on a page just use up bandwidth and 
likewise, piss me off.  It doesn't make your 
design any better or any flashier.  Sometimes the 
best approach is the simplest.

Thank you, I feel better now.
