I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but I don't really
see one that's specifically for the technical and functional aspect of the
website itself. These are not big failures or anything, but would be nice QOL
fixes.

1. The "Stay Logged In" checkbox does not work. For pretty much any
other site, closing the browser is not logging out. I even left a tab open overnight
and it logged me out. I am using Chrome 120.0.6099.129.

2. Wishlists and Orders don't sort colors in the same order. Wishlists will
put the "fancy" colors like like transparents and metallics in their
own subsection after the other colors. Orders will put them in normal alphabetical
order. I would prefer the absolute alphabetical order like the Orders are listed
but I would settle for either one as long as they matched. This seems like it
should be pretty basic but it's been around for the 5+ years I've been
using this site.

Those are more Technical issues than suggestions.  Moved the thread there

IOW: Wanted Lists sort by the Color Guide while Orders sort alphabetically.
That would indeed be annoying.

Maybe a temporary solution: create a Wanted list from your orders (there’s a
button/link at the bottom of your order details).
