Is it possible to keep the window showing the latest razors added to the database? That's a very convenient feature. Thanks.

I'm thinking about an additional row (actually, it's a table...) with "featured article" and "featured razor". The latter will be pulled from the SRDB including picture.

I really like it!
But I'm a little bummed that it looks awful at 1024x768
I guess that is a cross I will have to bear at any rate
Find me on SRP's official chat in ##srp on Freenode. Link is at top of SRP's homepage

The featured razor would would be great, but I like to look at the newest additions to the databank and that little window is very helpful. Originally Posted by BeBerlin

I missed this thread and went to the Wiki last night and was shocked to see the unfamiliar layout. The first thing that came to mind was that I can't leave BeBerlin alone for five minutes without his changing the Wiki.
I got over it and perused the new intro and it is very nice. It occurred to me that while someone probably would have worked on it if Robin had not the SRP Wiki wouldn't be the great resource that it is without the industriousness of BeBerlin.Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Newbie request,
It could be that it is already on the wiki, and I can't find it, but one thing that might be helpful to me, would be a page dedicated to the specific information on manufacturers of razors.
Example:
Name: Miscellaneous Straight Razor Co.
Date of operation: 1857-1858
Location: Brussels, Belgium
Other info: Also made razors under the name "Misc. Razor Co. & Son." Taken over in 1858 by Crazy Sharp Razor Co.
See Razors: (Link to all razors made by this mfg. in the database)
Can be added to as people find info on specific manufacturers. Also, for all razors by said mfg. that are added to the database, maybe a link can be provided to direct the viewer to the mfg. info page.
PS: here is a link that has been helpful for me, but it's copywrittten, so I don't know if the info can be used without permission. Straight Razor Manufacturers and Dates of Operation
