Re: the Name Browser
I mean the advanced search itself. I know how to get to it, but I've gotten the impression that a lot of other people don't and they miss out on how good the search really is. The thread I was in on reddit was complaining about Nameberry's snide little opinions on their entries; the commenter I talked to said it was unfortunate that their entries were so biased because she liked their search feature. I came in to praise BTN's amazing search and showed her some examples. Her reply:
QuoteI didn't know it could do that! I guess I think NB has a more intuitive search tool for the average user. Not only did it take me a lot of clicking to find BTN's full options filtering page, it took a lot of tinkering to understand how to use it.

Obviously do whatever you think is best, but I've been meaning to mention it and a thread about a search update seemed appropriate.

Hmm, point taken. Maybe a link on the front page near the search bar would be in order (in addition to the menu link). That gear icon could be the link instead of changing what you search for... Does anyone still use that gear to set their search?

I hope you get some answers. Personally I've never used it, but I'm almost never on the homepage either.
