Looks good!
Thanks!

I'll heartily 2nd this! A very good improvement to the DB interface!

Something I'd like to be able to see would be searching by two different
items eg theme and date, so I could see all the Space sets in 1987.

I think we'll need to add some kind of advanced search.  Right now if you
do some URL hacking you can get it to do logical-or, IIRC, on the theme
(category) and date (year), but of course it needs to be logical-and instead.

I'll also heartily 2nd this! There have been a number of times when I'm
looking for, say, a town set that came out between 1984 and 1987, for example--
and perhaps I even know that it's got more than 100 pieces... It'd be very
handy to be able to include search criteria like this.

As for what I'd want to search by in an advanced search:
-Set Number (or range)
-Set Name (or close to it)
-Year (or range)
-Theme
-Piece count (usually range)

As an alternative, being able to sort the result set by year, or price, or
number of pieces would be useful (especially year).

Ya, that would rock!

Hadn't ever thought of that, but while I'm at it, I'll 2nd this too :)

Looks great!
