    I've decided to add a support change to list new changes, reminders, recommendations, etc. It's right here. Of course I'm not fooling myself that very many people will ever read it, but someone might! I probably can't answer every possible question some of you might have but we can take a stab at some of the more common ones if you'd like.

    Obviously, the biggest hurdle most people want to know is beyond what I'm probably willing to invest in, which is how to resize photos. It's one thing to provide this resource, it's another to provide ongoing online support for things that would happen on your PC or Mac and requires various types of software.

    Hi Scott: You have one of the best sites that pertains to any musical intruments on the web. I visit your site every day and look at each classified ad - new & used. I also make good use of the links to various music dealers/retailers. I am wondering if it is possible to add a "next" button to the ads allowing to scroll through them without returning to the main listing between ads each time?

    Keep up the great work!

    That's an interesting idea. Never thought of that. Useful if you're viewing one at a time. Have you ever considered just bookmarking the "30 in full view" mode? That the way I view the classifieds via a bookmark. There are actually several ways to view via bookmark. You could just view Used Instruments, or just New, etc. I rarely look at the listing that just shows headlines, but that's just me. Here's the link: 30 in Full View.

    Only downside to that would be if your internet access is dial-up or just particularly slow, that page might take a little longer to load.

    Your question brought to mind if individual categories could be viewed in full view mode instead of headline view. Interesting that after a long, long time using those I'd never considered the question. You can indeed do that and I've already added notes on how to do that.

    Scott - maybe you have thought of this already, but one thing I often wish for when I'm browsing the classifieds is the ability to filter on a price range. Like Dirty Harry said: "A man's got to know his limitations". No point in drooling over items I can't afford.
