Hi, I have a suggestion that could improve the blog. I find the search function hard to use, since I have to scroll through pages of articles to find something if I search by animal name. So it would be nice if the Genera tag at the header of the pages could be updated? At the moment it only includes these animals:

Allosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Diplodocus, Iguanodon, Liopleurodon, Parasaurolophus, Spinosaurus, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus and Velociraptor.

While this is all good and well, I feel like it could be improved. Maybe include an option at the bottom of that list that says "See all Genera" and it takes you to a page with the list of names of most, maybe even all, animals featured on the blog, such as Dodos, Mammoths, Dilophosaurus. I think this would be much easier.

If you are having a hard time visualising what I mean, take the diorama pages on JPToys. All the diorama artists are organised by name.

And I feel it would be much better if the animals on our blog may be organised like this, too.

The contents page of the blog has an alphabetical list if all the reviews by genera.

It's a little harder to find though. It would be nice to at least have a link to it under the Genera heading.

Megalosaurus

It was useful for me. I used it to look for Stegosaurus. And it was before reading this thread.

A link to the contents page in the genera drop down menu?
