Initial thoughts

I must admit, it looks impressive.

Installation was very straightforward.

i (manually) imported some data from an (non ps) ecommerce store i created recently so i could play with some data.

the biggest problem I have had so far is finding my way around the files in dreamweaver, as I am totally unused to plugins.

Q about gallery.

what is the procedure for adding a gallery to a page, it may be straightforward, but i couldn't find it.

for example, if i choose gallery slideshow wide as the display, how do i put it in the product detail page ?

Q about catalog image & detail image. -
not sure if their placement on different tabs is intuitive
if i choose the same image for both, the same image is uploaded twice, the second with a suffix, however the image size is identical.
if the image is not resized, would it not be better to check if the image is the same and not upload 2 copies ?

Couple of points, (being from the UK)...

On install page 5 of 8, the 2 letter state field doesn't work for UK
Had to change the currency symbols to £, (in results grid & details pages so far)
is the plugins folder 'catelog' supposed to be spelled like that ?

i ran through the buying process using paypal express checkout and my sandbox account, and got as far as the the pp_confirm page, where i wasn't able to complete the transaction because my password didn't have 'at least one number'.
Don't know if this problem is because of PS4 or my sandbox account setup, but my sandbox pwd has no numbers

the default themes all seem to be very dark and moody, some lighter, brighter ones would be nice

PS i notice on the 'crazy' theme, the background displayed isn't there when being edited
after creating a new theme, i decided i no longer wanted it. is it possible to delete a user added theme ?

Not a 'thorough' test, but i will keep at it, and feedback anything else relevant

Recently, I have been working on some enhancements to PS3 for a client, involving adding some upselling and cross selling features to the cart and product detail pages.
If I can work out how to do these as plug-ins for PS4, that would be so cool.
