Ok, this is kind of NZ aviation-related. I've been working on a website for a friend who sells, among other things, prints by a guy called Peter Morath. Peter combines photos of kitset models with his own aerial photos. (He also does this with trains.)
The scenery is all New Zealand, but the same doesn't apply to the aircraft. There's some stunning shots around Canterbury, the southern lakes etc, which he could sell in their own right, but he's gone and placed aircraft in them...

Take a look at the site -- just bear in mind that it is not open to the public yet, and not 'live'! Plus I need a bunch of folk to test the site, so if you strike any problems, let me know.

Good stuff. I managed to "navigate" about it ok but think it needs a "Go back one page" button....? This would avoid searching about, i..e. clicking on the banner heading, to revert..

Just a thought, I help test sites for a designer mate on occasions and it's remarkable what can throw some members of the public.

Thanks, I do have a 'next/previous product' addon code, but it has a couple of bugs to iron out. It'll be working by the time the site goes live. However, good catch.

One of the reasons why I hadn't installed the previous/next module was that it couldn't cope with products linked to another category -- on my own site, for instance, I would put the Wellington scenery in the FS2004 category, and link to it from the FSX category. (This site is not yet available:) Since the AsKiwiAs store doesn't use linked products, I've now got this feature up and running.
