On the "artists" page, there's a link that says "see all the artist's stores." This should say "see all the artists' stores." There is more than one artist. Perhaps it's written this way because "artist's store (singular)" is a designation. But that isn't clear and is odd. You could say "Artist Stores." I think "artists' stores" works best. The way it is now definitely looks wrong and stops the reader. I've already e-mailed this and I won't keep bringing it up.

Got it, thanks Vicky! We'll put it on the fix list.

(The word seems to be correctly spelled everywhere else.) Thanks!
