I just saw a bulletin on My Space this morning from artist who said they found BG too hard to navigate. I agree. But I struggle with it everyday anyway because I make sales here.
HERE IS ONE OF MY BIGGEST FRUSTRATIONS ON BG: The "Sort Inventory"!
I just spent a long time trying desperately to find a piece so I could move it up to the top. Now I have a lot of inventory, so this is a daunting task indeed.
I can find it when I search for it, but not when I scroll down the bizillion pieces in the list under "sort inventory".
I gave up! I wanted to rip my eyes out after scrolling umpteen times.
I wanted all my hearts toward the front for upcoming Valentine's day. But this piece will just stay where it is....argh!!!
I simply cannot find it.
HOW BOUT HOW MY SPACE DOES IT NOW? You can "see" all of your pictures and then just click and move with the mouse. PERFECT! And ubber easy. |

Yes, that's a good idea Sharon, I've noticed it too, one has to know the exact title to find a piece, it would be much easier if there were picture thumbnails with the lists. |

Inventory thumbnails [pics] is a great idea.
Have a feeling it's not an "easy" task for BG though. [Think about the number of pieces listed on the Entire site.]
Btw, it's your own fault for being so "prolific" Sharon. lol. |

I hear you guys. I spent 1/2 hour yesterday moving things around. I update it every time I add new paintings or sell one - but if I don't keep up, it's daunting, even with under 50 pieces. |

I hate that you cannot "see" what you have done when you move pieces around. You just see a list of letters and words. Then it takes the BG system awhile to update it for you to check it on your profile. Not efficient at all. |

hold your horses guys, we've got most of this already planned out, just like you guys are thinking. give us a few weeks to work. I might be able to show you some pictures of our ideas and get some feedback before the programmers start building but these changes have been planned for awhile. |
