At running the risk of sounding like a complete idiot, I cant figure out how to add Items to my wishlist. Would someone tell me how? I looked everywhere but seem to be missing it anyways.

1) Hover your cursor over "My ANN" in the top-right corner of the site
2) Click "My Anime"
3) Scroll down to "Anime Goods" on the right side - there should be links for "My Collection" and "My Wishlist." Click "My Wishlist"
4) You should see a dropdown menu with "Add items to my wishlist [from your categories] and [from anime starting with A-Z] Select an option from that menu.
5) You'll be given another dropdown menu depending on your previous selection. Choose a title from that list.
6) After selecting a title, you'll see a list of releases with checkboxes next to them. Select the items you want to add, click the "Add to wishlist" button, and you're done.

However, I'd really recommend not using the wishlist at all. If you actually get something on the wishlist and want to add it to your My Collection list, you have to go and remove it from the wishlist before you can add it to the collection, and this has to be done for individual items. It's just more convenient to keep a separate wishlist in a .txt file or something.

Follow steps 1 and 2 from Zallis previous instructions. Near the top of the screen there should be three links centered on the page:
Edit my categories | Add anime I've seen | Public Anime Lists
Click the middle one. You'll then be prompted to choose a letter.
After you do that, you'll be given a list of all anime starting with that letter, and a column of three choices next to each indicating (from left to right) not seen, seen some, and seen all.
Go through the list selecting the appropriate circle, and when you're done, go to the bottom of the page and click the button that say "Record these selections".
Repeat for as many letters of the alphabet as necessary.

Alternatively, you can look up individual series, and just below the title choose the appropriate answer to: Have you seen this? want to / some / all

It's not called "Google Chrome" it's called "Google Chrome BETA." Shocked

Exhibit A: <--- "BETA"

The mouseovers don't work with my iPhone either! I want an immediate redress! Wink

Sorry if that came across as a personal attack, I just have a bit of an annoyance with Chrome right now and with the way Google seems content to release most of their products as half-baked beta releases. Just my opinion though. I actually think it would be cool if ANN was bleeding edge, but I guess to me most of the site comes off kind of old fashioned. It's the content and the folks who visit that keep this site going more than the functionality. One of the nice things about Chrome is the way it has started pushing the Mozilla developers to incorporate some of the better features in Firefox. I'm reading articles about how the browser wars may be the one and only chance we have to unseat Microsoft's never-ending dominance of the desktop. However, at work I still have to deal with many applications and services that still refuse to support Firefox or Opera or Safari or anything else besides the slow and bloated mess that IE has become.

Whoa, that's probably a bit more information than anyone cared to read. Oh well, I guess if Chrome support is coming we'll hear about it. Do any of the staff currently use Chrome? I know you some of you use FF because I've seen you speak to that effect, but I didn't really peg you guys as "try it just because it exists" types either.

As an update to this, the rollovers are working in the latest release of Chrome.
