Still working on the new website...

calic0catOkay, folks, I've got a few questions for you regarding my new website design.
1) When looking at story information, as far as character information is concerned, are you only interested in pairings or would you also like to see a list of characters who appear in the story? [edit: Based on feedback so far, I'm ditching the detailed character listings and going with pairing listings only - it's definitely much less work, so I'm just as happy to make the change.]
2) When listing pairings, do you only care about the main pairings or do you want to know about every pairing, including those that are only implied/mentioned or are unrequited or are short-lived?
3) For the GW folks, if sex scenes/citrus (whether of the lime, implied lemon, or explicit lemon variety) are listed in the warnings, is a 1x2/2x1 pairing listing sufficient to cover 1+2, 2+1, 1x2, 2x1, and this 1=2 pairing that seems to have suddenly become popular? [edit: Moot point since it turns out that the eFiction script gets confused by options that are partial matches for another option, meaning that it will match 2x1 with 1x2/2x1 or 1x2x1 (when doing searches and in certain other admin-related functions), as well as with the correct 2x1 option, so I'm just going to use 1x2/2x1 and forget about it. The same problem affects the warnings, which is why there's "Non-Consensual Sex" but "Past Non-Con. Sex". Fairly minor but seriously annoying bug - took a while to figure out what the heck was going on.]
4) Keeping in mind that the current skin is just the default and therefore will be changing, take a look at http://test.calic0cat.net - do the categories seem logical? Do the warnings and genres seem clear and complete? Are there additional warnings and/or genres that should be added?
It's probably still going to be at least another couple of weeks before the site goes live because a new release of the eFiction script that's running things is due out for testing at the end of this week. Since there's some important changes in the script, I want to wait till I have a chance to check it out before going live. Not much point in doing massive customization in order to put things up with the old script if I'm going to have to redo all that work to put up the new one in a matter of a few weeks.
