This also originally came up in my original thread, but I feel that the search options for vbdownloads is pretty lacking. Here are the two main problems with it:
1- (Biggest problem) You can only search once, click on thing, and all your results disappear. It would be much better if the results showed up on a newly loaded page so people can browse all the results at their own leisure, without having to re-type the same search thing over and over again to see what else is available. Parsing the results to cover multiple pages would also be nice.
2- Advanced Search fields would be very nice. Author, Title, Description, and category would all be nice to allow people to narrow down their searches.
This is another thing I feel should be fairly high priority. Thanks again.

It's been a while since I posted this, but I really hope someone takes a look at this and implements some better searching. The ability to only choose one thing before having to type in your search query and scroll down all over again is pretty rough.
