When I am looking through the archives for puzzles to buy, I am usually looking only for the "hard" or "very hard" puzzles.  I have to sift through many puzzles that do not interest me, and that makes the process slow.  I imagine that some other people might also have a range of difficulties that they prefer.  It would be nice if a purchaser could filter the archive so that they only see puzzles of a particular range of difficulty levels; this would make shopping faster and more pleasant.  A slider interface would be nice -- a linear range, with a draggable handle to mark the hardest difficulty level, and one to mark the easiest difficulty level.  This way a person could set the range of difficulties they want to see by dragging the high and low markers to the desired spots on the range (and then clicking a button called "refilter" or "search again" or whatever).


Examples:

To shop for puzzles of all levels except "very hard"...

  •     o-------------------------------------------------------------o
  • Ultra Easy----Very Easy----Easy--------Medium------Medium Plus---Hard----Very Hard


To shop for just "medium" and "medium plus" difficulty levels...

                                          o-------------o
Ultra Easy----Very Easy----Easy--------Medium------Medium Plus---Hard----Very Hard




To shop for just the "hard" and "very hard" puzzles...

                                                                   o---------o
Ultra Easy----Very Easy----Easy--------Medium------Medium Plus---Hard----Very Hard




Is there anyone else who likes this idea?

I would also like a filtering mechanism of some sort.  If I'm going to pay, I want value for it, and that means medium plus and up.
