Lol, thanks for the support. I'll pass on the shrine 
Though if its a made of holo-mannequin then I might *grins*
Though if its a made of holo-mannequin then I might *grins*Is there anything else that needs to be done to make this a better tool? I'm thinking of the ability to save common clothing styles (eg: Bounty Hunter - Decorative Vest, Tipless Gloves, Ribbed Pants, Standard Boots), and show the price, based on your own mask?

Actually, I would like to suggest a tweak, if it's possible. Many tailors round their prices up or down for ease of vendor loading. It would be nice if the pricing system had an option, after the mask is applied, to "round to the nearest..." whether you want to round to the nearest 250, or 500 or whatever.

Yes, I like NJ's suggestion. I'm in the middle of manually rounding off all the prices even now. *delete 56, insert00*
I'd like to suggest a Printer Friendly version.

Yup, more than possible. I'll get onto it when I can, though I've almost killed my laptop and the new one isn't coming until next Wedneday (yay, ready fer xmas!).
Any suggestions on how could I make it more printer friendly?

More printer friendly... hmm. Being hopelessly clueless, I tried several things when trying to create something printable.
I had it sorted by Category. Easiest version for me when stocking the vendors. Saved the web page as .html, then tried a copy/paste into Notepad. Horrible results. 
Tried Word. Much better, but 7 pages! Eeek! Unwieldy, at best. Called in my 17 year old son and said, "Fix it. I want less pages."
Tried Word. Much better, but 7 pages! Eeek! Unwieldy, at best. Called in my 17 year old son and said, "Fix it. I want less pages."About two hours later, deleting extraneous columns (I don't need gender and factory time on the pricing printout), reducing the font size, making each page have two columns instead of one (Garment Name/Price-Garment Name/Price), removing hyperlinks, reorganizing the categories so each page was filled to capacity withoutsplitting any category to a different page... he was able to tweak the document down to only three pages. Much better!
I was sitting here manually rounding off the prices when my daughter-in-law walked up and said, "You need Excel."
*sigh*
So I don't know how you make a doc printer friendly. But I sure know now how one acts when it's hostile.

Blimey thats alot of work just for a print out!!!
I'll try and add a print option page then (pick columns, number of columns etc). Generally trying to work from a web page to other document is a proverbial nightmate I tend to copy and paste from the webpage into Notepad, and then copy and paste from Notepad into Excel/Word, if I want to print anything - but I'll sort something out anyway
