Well, now that the stress of the server move (which was surprisingly not so much) is pretty much settled down, we're back on the case of rolling out new features.

Autosuggest feature in our main top-right search input has been improved. It is now faster and smarter. It now does smart matching on what you type literally.. so when you type in the letters 'woma' you will get:
woman 430
young woman 52
sexy woman 12
blond woman 10
mid adult woman 8
womans legs 6
elderly woman 5
upscale woman 4
I am pretty happy with this as even the mother-of-all Autosuggests, Google Suggest
http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en, which was the first major implementation of this form of search in a web application, still only matches the literal characters you type. Typing in 'woma' there would not return 'young woman'.
Paul had asked me why 'kid' and 'kids' show up as 2 options, and after examining the logic for this, the conclusion is: we ask that you, the artists, input only one form (the most relevant) form of each keyword. If there's three children, then enter 'kids', only one, 'kid'. The autosuggest input will show all plurals and variations that exist literally in the database,
but, when you click on any particular version, the search
results page will return a ranked list of related words. So.. in a nutshell, if you click on 'kids' that doesn't mean your results page will exclude 'kid'. It should, in most cases, match on any variation of a root word. We are still trying to work out synonym functionality.

Submissions Page I know some of you still have overdue files there, but hey we are moving forward.
The Submissions Page (
http://www.zymmetrical.com/account/submissions/)has been redone to use a more advanced data grid with filtering and sorting, and (coming tomorrow), a way to upload model releases and use checkboxes to indicate the photos associated with that photo.
It also has a nice little pie chart and some condensed statistics on the bottom for those of you who like to crunch numbers.
