Go Go Books Books and more Books

Actually, around 10 more titles didn't make it into the picture...

Go boards, boards, more boards, and some stones

Today I received the shipment from Prague, 116 Go Boards, 70 Sets of Stones and some plastic Bowls. It took me a while to put them away.

One step back and two steps forwards

I have now added the manga Hikaru no Go to the webshop. Even vol 16 and 17 that aren't out yet.
I haven't received the books yet though, but very soon now.

Today I also took the car to the annual inspection and except for bad brakes, it passed! Neither the now missing rear mirror nor the broken windshield seemed to be a problem.

I am soo stupid :-(

First:
I added som Chinese decoration stuff to the Webshop, check it out!

and some bookmarks

Then, to the stupid part...
I wanted to hang another decoration thingie in the mirror of my car, so I started to pull at it and eventually managed to get it off the socket, but I cannot put it back! And what's worse: I managed to break the windshield while trying! :-(

All my cartoons

Well, except for my really quite small collection of French cartoons and a few magazines and the pile of stuff that I decided to sell/give away, I can now fit all my cartoons in one book shelf.

Illustrations/photos

I'm trying to come up with some ideas for illustrations and/or photos for the Webshop, but it is going so-so...

Sleepless in Stockholm

Couldn't sleep so I spent some of the night working on the webshop.
The code is starting to get too complex for me to be able to understand it, which is a little frightening. I wonder if I am stupid or if my coding is really bad, probably a bit of both :(

Also, when I add different ways for people to find what they are looking for it starts to become important to think about design.
I suspect that both the database and the page ought to have a little different designs, but it's hard to see before adding items to the database and adding functionality to the page; and it is of course sometimes to change the design afterwards...

I have about 130 items in the database at the moment and it is possible to chose from categories such as Go, Chess, Go Books in Chinese etc (which looks in a "tags" field in the db) or chose among the books for eg Joseki, Opening, Beginners Books etc (which looks in another "tags" field.
There is also a Search function which looks in all fields.
Sometimes I think I put too many search options there, but these are functions that I would like as a customer so...

Oh, another change I made today: Items that I don't have in stock are listed with gray text instead of black.

When looking through some papers today, err, yesterday, I found a leaflet with a web adress to a Chinese distributor, maybe I will import some stuff from them; if google translate is correct I think it will be quite ok. :-)
