It's hard to test the Preview site properly with the limited # of addons currently added, but I 2nd everything already said on this page. Have you guys learnt nothing over 3+ revisions of AMO? Users are tearing out their hair crying, "All I want to do is find a specific addon or browse the mass of addons quickly and easily" - and yet with each AMO revision, it continues to be a frustrating experience:

* What happened to 'more previews' link/text that used to be below an extension/theme's preview image? Gone or not yet implemented? Please implement and re-link the image (v2 removed this feature for some reason).
** Yes, that will show up again. It's on my list. --[[User:Wenzel|wenzel]]
* Broken: Similar to above, the ''"Subscribe to this Category"'' RSS Link points to a feed URL such as http://preview.addons.mozilla.org/addons/rss/categories/13 - when it follows that it should be [http://preview.addons.mozilla.org/addons/rss/categories/1/13 ''"/1/13"'']. Interestingly, '13' and '1/13' both have stuff in them, ''category 1035'' and ''category 1017'' respectively. That's somewhat confusing, especially as the RSS feed does not have an identifiable-by-name name..

* On an [http://preview.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/addons/display/138 Extension(or Theme)'s page], you have the Extension Name followed by Version# on the same line (good to see it back, thanks - v2 was not good). Further down the page you have Version# and timestamp, which is thus partially redundant & a waste of space. Suggestion: go back to something closer to v1's implementation ([http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/9222/amoextensionspage2oldlo0.jpg screenshot]) which put it all at the top. Clean it up a little by putting the 'released on..' on its own line.

* Thank you for your extensive feedback. That helps us a lot to make Remora better. Regarding your "improvement" question: Keep in mind that the current public preview is still an "alpha" version. It is, almost by definition, incomplete, sometimes buggy, has rough edges and is far away from perfect -- or from its final state, for that matter. Therefore it is important that you tell us what you like, and what you don't, so you can influence how Remora will look and feel like when it's done. --[[User:Wenzel|wenzel]] 11:19, 17 January 2007 (PST)
