Is there a way to have a better way of using the product option feature such as having the format change to radio, listbox, checkbox, or textbox with adding options of color with prices and such. it currently can do listbox dropdown and textbox with options or text. anybody let me know. I would be extremly happy.

Thanks guys!

Yeah - this is possible.

The template to change is skin1/modules/product_options/customer_options.tpl

There is html in there for the drop down box...this can be changed to a radio group html if you prefer.
