Have you guys noticed all the new shinies? I launched all this almost two weeks ago, but I only just now got the bugs under control. I've been working on this project for almost 6 months, so I've forgotten a lot of the minor stuff, but here are the highlights:

- new browsing model. You can now filter any browse page by toyline, country and form simultaneously.
- new site-wide API. All browsing pages now use a suite of unified shmax APIs for building and displaying their lists and navigation menus. If anybody is interested in using these APIs for some external project they're working on, drop me a line.
- new "link to products" widget. You won't see this one unless you submit part record updates
- fix at least one IE issue (I don't recall what it was, or who reported it)
- finished the fancy new profile page. I still haven't launched this for all users, yet, but I will soon
- got rid of the old "Show only" strings at the top of browse pages and replaced it with a simplified breadcrumb presentation
- redesigned the color picker widget

And dozens of little fixes and enhancements I can't remember. Please report any bugs you notice, and enjoy!

I have noticed the filters on the side. Thanks for your efforts. My collecting has slowed a bit but I still check in pretty often. Just ain't had much to say :) Happy New Years to all of you.
