If you mooch about on the Special Reserve and Freeola sites you'll find little problems or annoyances. e.g. why can't I do this, I can't understand that or couldn't we do the other.

So we would like your comments in this BUG TEST. An extra prize will go to the person who contributes the most to improving this site with little tweaks or solutions.

LITTLE TWEAKS are the operative words. You will not win anything for suggesting that we spend £35 billion on a re-design.

You must post your comments under this topic (or the similar one on the Playstation 2 forum) to stand a chance of winning.

Good luck


The Winner will be decided on Christmas Eve

You could make the search engine so that it understands abrieviations. For example i search for dead or alive 2 i could put D O A 2 and it would show dead or alive 2

They are probably not updated because there is no news for that subject.

Is there anything that can be done to cut down the number of links on the left hand side of the page. This could make the site more user friendly and not so confusing. Having a scroolbar would be better because there because if people needed to find something in particular they could just scroll down to look for it.

Try this URL:

http://serverpool.reserve.co.uk/common/shops/bristolgiveaway.php

Bit out of date, don't you think.

Also shop sites have maps on of a small area, why not link these to a map site that can supply a wider area mad.

And further to this, after the new window has opened, say for "The magazine shop", if you go back to your original window, and click "get mapping", it doesn't open a new window, it comes up on your second window.

Have I not explained that very well?

Okay, try this:

Scroll down to the bottom of the page.

Click "The Magazine Shop" link. A new window should appear.

Whilst waiting for this to load, why not take a look at "Get Mapping"?

Click "Get Mapping".

Nothing appears to happen.

Check to see if "The Magazine Shop" has opened in second window.

"Get Mapping" is there / loading!

We wanted "Magazine Shop"!

I clicked on the "The Magazine Shop" link at the bottom of the page. It opens in a new window, but this takes ages to load. It just took 2 minutes to see this!

It also takes an age to load the get mapping page in a new window.

Most people will probably have moved on before they see the information!

If you don't enter anything in the search box, and click on go, you get 3488 matches.

More bugs and glitches, as I find them.
