Sometimes it's the small things...

...that make the difference.

Yeah, I don't blog everyday. And I'm not adding books everyday. But by Mary, I'm working on code dang near everyday. So it's time to brag about the latest round of updates.

Identification Info
When reading a graphic novel's profile, you'll notice a new link in the Edition Detail: "Click for ID info." Click, and you're presented a pop-up listing the edition's unique identifiers, which may include an ISBN, ISBN-13, EAN, and/or Diamond Previews code.

Diamond Preview codes?
Yep, that's right - Diamond Preview codes. About 75% of all books in the archive have this identifier, which should go a long way if you're looking to order an edition via your LCS (local comic shop). Give 'em the code and you'll be making their job much easier.

Amazon review links
Noticed an oddity with Amazon and their data feed. While the feed may report an unreleased edition as having reviews available, they're not actually displayed on Amazon's website. So I've pulled all Amazon review links for unreleased editions.

Blog categories
I've consolidated the GNA's blog categories to fall more in line with the remainder of the web site.

MyGNA shortcut links
If you're skimming through some search/browse summary results, I've added some handy links for registered visitors. You can now add an edition to your collection or wish list immediately from the summary. And if the edition is already in your collection or wish list, it'll be flagged as such.

Comparison shopping
I always found myself turning "Show Coupons/Special Offers" and "Assume Cover Price" on with the checkboxes, so I've turned 'em on permanent-like. Also fixed the Abebook links (they moved to a new affiliate system).

Minutia
Various formatting tweaks throughout, a bug fix or two. Currently working out the logic for a couple new community editor tools. Stay tuned!

That is all.
