Wow, this revision is terrific!

I love the light gray. This is what I had in mind when I mentioned “white washed.” It looks so clean and modern, but the wood grain and shelving prevent it from appearing plain and stark. This or the dark gray will be my default.

Like Dr. Ohh, I am gravitating back to your original layout -- the square/AR layout. It is just cleaner and nicer looking to have a little more visual spacing between the books. So your instincts here were right all along.

One thing that may or may not be a glitch:

When in square/AR layout, I don’t notice any difference in cover size when I switch between large and medium covers. It appears to only show medium even if “Large” is selected. For both large and medium, I get 4 full shelves showing, top to bottom. Whereas in portrait/AR with large covers selected, only 3.5 rows show. Is this by design for the square/AR layout? If so, no biggie, as I think I might stick to medium covers in this layout anyway.

Perhaps the right way is "skinny (.60), normal (.65), wide (.75), extra wide (.85)"
I find the current options sufficient enough, but if you offered this additional tweaking, I would likely use it. You might want to use the word “thin” or “narrow” instead for the .60 ratio.

Thanks to you, Steve and Annie for all the great enhancements!
