GAH!!! YOU HAD TO ASK THAT!!!!

There are products on the new products page that were put there by me in 2002. They are STILL THERE!

Why?

"They are not in any catalogs, so they are new. Once the new catalog comes out they will no longer be new."

I hate the page SO MUCH because it lies.

I asked if we could date products, like most "new products" pages. So, if a product were added today it would say 8/3/07: Squeegee and then over time products would be taken off. But we can't do that, because if we did then people would realize that products had been on the new products page for a long time and are no longer new.

>:(

Maybe since dates are no good, you could include a fine print definition of "new" that would allow for and acknowledge items that are extremely not new.

Also, it'd be cool if you could make it so the entire button fades in and out, that way you could use it to remind customers of the transience of human existence, and if you set it so it stays invisible for much longer than it is visible, you can scare people into clicking it because by god, what if it never reappears next time?!

I'm totally doing that.

Except the invisible button would still exist as a place in which they could click. So they need not the button, but rather the space wherein the button can be found.

MUST DO
