On the advanced search page it would be great to have a filter to remove closed walls or projects from the results.

Dido, I think Oil Crack and The Arena shouldn't be showing up in the list by default, because that just entices people to poach routes.

ok, awesome:

@bcombs: will do.. or at least something like it.. maybe they'll just be colored differently.. or maybe you can just sort based on spray/no spray.
@sandman: i like it. i'll work something like that in there.
@pawilkes: ..maybe.. i'm lazy when it comes to asking people (ie: ray) to figure out the date of the guidebook snapshot
@captain static: ..voyeur..
@artsay: you got it for the checkboxes. as for the letters, i have a different idea that i think will work for you..
@wes: ..how about just faster spraying? a full wizard.. i'm not sure how to select multiple routes for spray until you assume a few things (eg: sent in x tries, on lead). might consider a more advanced form later.. but might sit on the backburner for a bit.
@meadows: nope, that's easier to do on your side than on mine (ie: changing your own printer settings via the print dialog).
@monkey boy: yep, will do.

what do people think about:
1) todo lists.. like grudges but can prioritize.
2) custom home page.. think igoogle with widgets like recent comments, random routes, recent spray, etc.
3) custom pdf itineraries..
4) track tries on a route..

keep the ideas coming..

Paul.. Tracking tries on a route not yet sent is a great idea..

I like the custom home page... I always go check the recent sends list looking for my homey's. If I could choose a dozen or so users and get a snapshot of their recent sends that would rule.

Also, on my request about filtering spray. The reason I ask for it is that I have printed the search results on a B&W printer only to get to the cliff and not be able to tell what is blue and what is not. :lol:

How about instead of listing walls in the online guide with the word "The" in the begining listing it at the end. For example instead of saying "The Johnny and Tectonic Wall" you could say "Johnny and Tectonic Wall, The".

How about a map feature showing a decent usgs topo of the crags and trails mentioned. It could be updated when new routes/crags etc are developed and might enhance the written directions visually. The pdf page print-out format is a cool idea too.
