I just added a large-format printer capable of doing 300x200x575 (12"x8"x23") to my profile, but there are two problems:

1) in the profile page, the new printer's volume is showing the volume details for the first printer in my profile.

2) when you search for a printer by zipcode, the summary result shows only the first printer, and doesn't indicate the print capability. While I want to highlight the print volume, someone else might want to highlight a different aspect of his printer -- perhaps a "highlight summary for display" text field would be useful?

nathan - 1) This has been fixed.
2) Go to makexyz.com/u/services and click "set as primary in zip" on your 'big' printer listing. That'll make the big info show in the search results.

toybuilder - Right - but I don't want the big printer as my primary -- because I'd like to continue offering the Makerbot prints as the primary service, at least for now... And I do think having a "banner text" (or whatever one might call it) would help each provider differentiate their offering(s)?

toybuilder - p.s. Thanks for the fix!

defcon3d - any plans to enclose it?

toybuilder - hmm, continuing along this line of improving the presentation of one's profiles, is there a way to change which picture is the primary returned in the listings?

defcon3d - Joseph if your talking about the one that shows under all the listings in a given area. Then the only way to change it is to delete all the photo's and start from scratch as this is your first photo.

This is a problem on a number of these sites right now. I know that another site is looking to make the photos adjustable on the fly so you can choose to swap your work in and out...
