    Looks great. The field where you type in your bid could use some formatting :)
    About bidding, I'd suggest you make a minimum bid limit, so bids have to be 1or2% more than the current highest bid.

    scrolls, etcs, and other items that are identical and stack should be fine.

    As for equips... let's have several sorting options:

    1) sort alphabetically by name
    2) sort by price
    3) sort by a particular statistic:
    a) weapon attack
    b) slots left
    c) int, str, dex, luk
    d) accuracy
    e) all other stats if you want to bother too, like avoid, wdef, mdef, hp, mp

    When adding an item it should be optional if you want to fill any of this out.

    Sorting will be added later on, but definitely before release.

    Also, there is already a minimum bid set at 1000 over the current Max. I can set this to any percentage so it's just a question of what is the best.

    Maybe we can look for inspiration for percentages from another game with auctions?

    A 4-5% increase is pretty standard. Along with a flat minimum increment if that is larger.

    Better yet, it would be nice to let the player selling the item set these values for their item.

    That sounds good. Maybe a 2-3% minimum and let users increase it to a certain limit.

    I finished up the auction page and comments

    Just a quick status update:
    I'm working on the user profile page/feedback and dashboard right now. I'm also working on a system to detect what color an equip should be based on the increased stats. I also have a way to make the item picture glow like ingame. Other than that, just basic layout changes to make it look nice a pretty on desktop and mobile.

    I've been dealing with some real life issues for the past week but now I can get back to work.

    I remember seeing glowing usernames on an old forum. Can you use this same method? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXkSOeN3Q7c

    It does use CSS3 to make the glow but it uses an updated method. It actually looks exactly like it does in-game. Usernames wont glow any color though, they will most likely just change colors based on feedback score or some other metric.

    Had to really think to come up with some critique, it looks so good at this point.

    Sorting. It would be nice to be able to sort the auctions after price and such. Like low to high.

    Just finished sorting:
    working on alerts and stuff now. Also, the index page has a search bar, and that's it. Not sure what to put there yet

    Looks great!

    About index page: If I had just logged in, I'd want to see
    • What's going on with the items I have for auction.
    • What's going on with the items I have made a bid on.

    The dashboard will have that information in detail. The index and every page on the site will have "alerts" at the top of the page. These alerts will be triggered when auctions end, someone outbids you, etc. They will be shown once and never again, even if you don't dismiss them. Would that be good enough? Or maybe a simpler version of what's in the dashboard? I just hate having two pages with the same information. I was thinking maybe "hot auctions" or "Top sellers".

    I'm working on getting a domain name a hosting service together. Once I get alerts, multiple stock auctions, and spam detection working, I'll release a beta. The alerts and spam detection will take the longest, hopefully no more than 2 weeks.
