Were all the little linky-icon things (like the one for delicious) there before? When the sales bar was there, too? If those are new, my feeling is that the sales bar was removed intentionally. It would be great to find out, though - I liked knowing how a shirt is doing. It might help me decide whether or not to buy a shirt at the last minute, just to support a particular designer.
no those buttons weren't there before. i miss the bar because i usually check the site at work. if i can hold off buying the shirt until i get home, i will. i don't like making purchases at work. if the bar was removed intentionally, i vote for it to be put back!!!
I'm sure you are right RequiemX. Being able to see the bar when a T is selling fast is great for encouraging more sales but seeing it when a shirt is really struggling has the exact opposite effect IMO.
aha. so it's in a different spot (halfway through the photo) in IE, but not in Firefox (my primary browser). Looks like it might only function in certain browsers. sad.
bird definitely doesn't move on firefox. I liked the bar better personally. I don't think someone new to the site would realize that the bird shows how many sold.
I don't think one NEEDS to know how many sold. If the bird moves to indicate sales, great, but all one needs to know is "get it before it sells out". Which means if your order goes through, you did it. Like any other deal a day, you snooze, you lose, and that's true no matter whether it sells out fast or slow.
So let´s get this straight (I tried all optios on my Mac and on the PC of my girlfriend): This bird doesn´t move in Firefox, Safari or IE on a Mac, it doesnt move in Firefox on a PC, it ONLY moves in Internet Explorer on a PC!
This bird is actually Bill Gates!!!
