Browsing is a chore due to the very small thumbnails attached to each
set, item, etc. Please consider a listing format that can take advantage of modern
online retail listing standards. At this point, you're almost better off
browsing elsewhere (Amazon, eBay, etc), then coming here to plug in the item
number. Keep us here.

I agree, it's a pain. And the bandwidth is not that much, just move the images
to a static-serving webserver.

Actually, I think that browsing is much more efficient with the small thumbnails
as long as the images are good enough. Larger images would only mean a lot more
scrolling. Different users have different needs! I hope any updates or changes
would acknowledge both needs.
