The images workflow I would like to see SEO friendly included. Not x-cart re-naming the filenames to image452.jpg

This workflow is being reworked right now, so it will be there.

Multicurrency a nice addition, would have liked it to have been improved since just simply x-cart 4 version which was basic. It would be good practice to say okay we have the feature, but this is x-cart 5, we are going to bring it out but improved from version 4, however good its there either way. I think improvements are coming however. Auto-detect via geo-ip in future, not the customer has to go find a menu and they might think the store is based in USA, when its not, and they close the browser. Added benefit would be with geo-ip, you can usually narrow down to the town or city and therefore display a customised message that not only is the currency in their currency, but you can ship to this location. Perhaps even say shipping from $5 to this location for example in a graphic. It would appear that this is very possible. I have seen this in cart websites.

This is a great suggestion. I will make a note of it for Geo-IP implementation.

The en/us icon I still have an issue with. First you are showing the Union jack flag and the USA flag merged together for some reason. Because we have an alliance? It seems for a language it seems. Okay well that can be argued, but then you are displaying the USD currency next to where the Union Jack flag is. Surely an oversight. USA and UK language have many differences in spellings and interpretation. More important is that it is confusing to determine to a customer if you are based in the UK or the USA? Imagine you are on Amazon for example and you can see there could be some confusion there. I immediately changed this image to British because my shop is UK based. A lot of input for one image maybe, but it could have important ramifications to the end user. Are you going to then display Russian flag icon with another Russian speaking country like Ukraine? because you speak the same or similar language?

I will look into it with the team and we will come with some solution.
