Memo to eBid towers, we've got a spelling mistake

Just noticed a spelling mistake:

Occasions & Seasonal > Weddings & Stationary

should be..............."e" as in envelope....., not "a" as in car

Shouldn't the help desk bit just be Helpdesk (no capital D)

LOL. I think this may be one of the most common spelling mistakes in the world. I remembered seeing these before, Googled "stationery" to make sure. A couple of sites on the first page make sure they'll be found:

"Stationery, Stationary, Personal Stationery, Personalized Stationary . . ."

"Personalized Stationery (Stationary), . . . "

Doesn't help that "stationary" is a real word, with a totally different meaning.

I love the English language!!!

I reckon it was until the WWW took off... then it became "loose" and "lose".

Stationary.. Not moving, not movable.

Stationery.. Letter paper with envelopes.

Shouldn't "eBid" be "ebid" while we're at it?

My answer is no. eBid, to me (I don't know the legality), is possibly a trademark or copyright name, so it is what it is.

Way up.. upper left here, eBid spelling and on logo.

Logo, that's the word I was looking for.

Unless the car is moving, in which case it won't be stationary.

While we are on the subject, not quite a spelling error that people make, but another quirk that seems to be moving towards being accepted, which really really gets on my t**s, is this:
could of

should of



there are a few others in a similar vein which thankfully don't spring readily to mind.
