Since there are 2 ways to spell that color, is there a way that searching for one of the other will search for both? Here are my results searching for Blackout:

We went with "grey" for the Color Scheme...I think the reason that "gray" gave results is that the Kre-O parts are described as "gray" - the spelling found in the Hasbro instructions.

That is a very good idea, though...shmax will have to chime in here as I have no clue as to whether or not that is something that can be done.

if search = grey then search = grey,gray
if search = gray then search = gray,grey

I'm sure there's a little more to it but that should be the jest of it. I had job back in 02 and had the same problem with color, colour. That was my solution. Hope it can help. :-)

Colors are one of the things that will be refactored into the new tagging groups feature I'm cooking up. I'll see what I can do about alternate spellings when I get a little farther into it. Thanks, guys...

Took me a year and a half, but I got around to it! With our fancy new search engine I have the ability to specify alternate word spellings, so I've added gray > grey and colour > color.

Thanks for hanging in there, Trip.
