Hey. Two things I just thought of/noticed.

New Items Feature
I just realized the store doesn't have a "new items" button. This is a helpful feature on many other successful airsoft retailer websites because it shows new and exciting products to your shoppers and showing new items that are on pre-order until the release date can increase traffic and sales. ASGI and Evike both have these features (though Evike doesn't follow through on their pre-orders well).

Image Size Issues
The sizes of the display images per item on the website are pathetic. More experienced Internet users will know that actually right-clicking the image and clicking "view image" (depends on your browser but does the same thing regardless) will show the original, non-compressed image, but those with less experience won't see a "click to view larger image" button and will possibly lose interest in the item. Almost happened to me when I ordered my King Arms M4 because I couldn't tell if it was the metal version or not... I only went through with the order because I asked Doc himself about it.

Just two ideas.

Thanks so much for the input...We are working on the site for hours a day even though it may not seem like it to those checking everyday...I'll mention this stuff to the team.
