I have noticed that the stores are no longer deemed important enough to be at the top of the homepage ... and have now been shoved right down underneath the category listings on the left side of the page.
WHY on earth have you done this? The stores now have a mere 4 words to describe themselves and frankly who is going to see the stores if they dont scroll half way down the site?
The positioning of them now, and the design, makes them look as if they are google ads and frankly I think its insulting to the store owners who have pout a lot of time and effort into making their individual stores something really attention grabbing.
For goodness sake PLEASE stop messing about with things and making the site look unprofessional. Its getting beyond a joke now.
