The views on our products has plummeted since the 7th of May and ironically the views in the main counter have gone haywire because of a bug.
Has anyone else noticed this? Has the new larger sized product view in the main gallery appeared a factor in less people going to the product page and also not looking at other products shown on the product page?

My product views are down drastically since the change. I think you may have a valid point.

If ya ask me, no one has any disposable income anymore to even possibly shop for anything on Zazzle. I mean, come on...gas is $3.75 a gallon now where I live. Who are we kidding???

I'm afraid your all correct on this one... Yes, views and sales have plummeted since the makeover, but wow only 3.75$  ? Where do you live? If you think that's bad don't come to California... I'm not even going to say what our gas prices are like here. I was actually thinking of saving up to get a car this year but at this point I'm better off just not having one.

E_Studioz...
I wish we had $3.75 a gallon !
2 weeks ago, premium was 4.22 !
Its gone down alittle bit now - around 3.95.
Still, last time to fill my tank $30.91
Yikes !!!
Yes, I think the entire gas thing, and economy is slowing down sales. People are only buying what they need.
So my guess is that right now, maybe Wedding postage & Graduation items are the only things doing well...
and maybe some 4th of July items...
just a hunch..

$4.22 a gallon. I guess it depends what you're used to. If your family budget is set to $3 a gallon, life just got pricey.
But try the UK: Consistently over GBP£1 per litre = roughly $2 per litre = roughly $9 per gallon! Thankfully, we live on a small island.

I would love to pay the prices they do in the US .. currently its running at £1,15 a litre where I am .. Wow Donna $30 to fill the tank .. thats only about £15 .. to fill the tank of our car its around £60 - $120 now ... The economies are bad and getting worse .. but the good thing about fuel prices is .. people don't use their cars as much so shop on line more  .. ok I have to look on the bright side of everything ... cos if I didn't I'd get depressed

That would be absolutly AMAZING.. I work about 30 minutes away four days out of the week, and going back and forth to college, four days a week, at least two classes each day.
I feel like I fill my tank at least once a week, it's crazy.

Okay, I have to say it. My wife and I both remember when gas was $.29 p. g. and they used to give away things like mugs and so forth just to get people to come to the gas station. Oh, yeah, they used to come out and fill the tank for you instead of sitting inside with their feet on their desk, watching TV. We're just a pair of old geezers.

Oh I loved those full service stations especially when I needed air in the tires (I'm better at letting it out than putting it in) although I always felt a little guilty having them check the oil when it was raining or 10 below

I don't remember wagons but I do remember when they delivered milk to your doorstep then again with the cost of gas nowadays horse drawn wagon seems like a viable alternative

Glass bottles with milk were a big new thing when I was about 15. No supermarkets, a smithy ´round the corner where we could watch horses being shoed (and I grew up in the middle of a town!), no washing machines, no fridges, TV was the latest invention (in black and white with one channel!), no central heating. And to have a bath we filled a tin bath in the wash house. Now tell me I´m not old It was a great time for kids though - you could have real adventures, and we didn´t need an x-box to play

You go a little farther back than me but not much....bottled milk was being delivered to our door when I was in Elementary School and I also remember getting our first B/W tv, before that I listened to 'The Whistler' and 'Amos and Andy' on radio LOL....those WERE the good ol days comparitively speaking.

Yes, views have dropped and SALES have plummeted. I am down 60% this month...and not surprising since my items hardly even make the first 9 pages in searches...argh.

My views are non existent now. I have spent the last week uploading loads of new stuff for the photography gallery and it seems nothing is being looked at. Bigger thumbnail views is stopping others having a 'closer' or 'bigger' look. It's not as good here as it used to be ... too many changes! Shame.
