A couple things:

1) Currently you can only submit the MSRP along with the release info as far as I can tell. In my opinion, MSRP should be something you can submit on it's own just like product codes. I've seen some people submit identical release info to those that's already on file just to add the price.

2) Perhaps I'm misremembering but weren't promo art in a single group sorted by image type before? For example, first all screenshots then all concept art and so on. Now it's by image order (as far as I can tell) and can result in a mess when there's renders in between concept art and logos - https://www.mobygames.com/game/3714/resident-evil-2/promo/group-6358/ An option to sort promo images by image type would be nice.

3) And finally, just a suggestion - Promo images for platforms. Basically hardware pics (consoles, controllers, accessories) and system logos from official sources. I've seen plenty of this stuff on various press kits from Nintendo, Sony, Sega & Microsoft. Could put it on the platforms page besides "View Trivia" - https://www.mobygames.com/platform/ps2/

The Steam importer seems broken, returns 503 when trying to import a Steam store page.

Are there any plans to make more alternative payment methods for MobyPro available? I am not able to access a credit card because I have leftovers of student debt and that bars me from getting one. Cash App is also not available anywhere but UK and US. What about PayPal?

Yeah, we'll add PayPal support, and will try to get that in soon.
