New Card Category Highlights
Jan 25^th, 2008, 12:30pm

We have just updated our Card Categories List to highlight two things for you:
1. Categories with 0 cards
2. Categories you have cards in

Take a peek:

Find some needy categories that interest you and create away!

Please note the highlight colors do not print out at this time, so for now it's a look & see. The category list is getting quite long which is good but doesn't print in a manageable format, we've noticed and it's on the list

Very small/hard to see.. but that's it exactly.
Thanks.

PS... why didn';t I think of using a photo site to give a screenshot?? I just saw there was no way on the message board...
Blame it on the migraine.

(PS.. Migraine wins.. logging off for today, If you have any questions, see you tomorrow, or maybe around midnight central time.)

Definately seeing double lists on my view too but besides the double listing of categories: Under animals, the sub categories show both 1) Wildlife and 2) Jungle Zoo.... Considering Jungle Zoo IS wildlife, birds reptiles, farm animals or other animal categories already listed.. it seems redundant. How about just Wildlife for the category name which would cover North American Species, Exotic Jungle etc. Thanks for considering. Cheers, Lisa

This is fixed now, so you won't be seeing double anymore.

Thanks for the fix!!

And... *I* have a large number of cards?!? Shocked

Wow.. I guess I DO have just over 50 now, but I didn't realize that was a LOT..

Thanks again!

This looks great!

I'd already been looking to start filling in the zeros, but knowing how many I have in categories that aren't zeros will be nice too.

Thanks Mindy, Shaun, and GCU for another cool tool! I'm both amazed and very grateful for all the thought you put into making things easier for us!

Just a head's up to others who have cards that have been here awhile ... I noticed there were a few catagories that I know I have cards for not showing up. When I checked them, I realized they are all older ones and many of these catagories didn't exist when I submitted them. So, I have some major cleaning up to do! I'll have to keep closer tabs on all the new and wonderful catagories that are cropping up!

Thanks again for this great tool!
