just the new astronomics website. We figured after a decade it was time for a change.

Very nicely done. I like that it's easy to search either by manufacturer or type of item. Easy to navigate. The only issue is that I have to hit the compatiblility view button a few times.

Congrats on the make-over!

fwiw the pages don't render too well on an ipad (safari and chrome) - top banner doesn't scale to fit screen width, and the rest of the page follows along.

Wow, I think that's the most easily searchable vendor Website that I've seen, and I consider myself to be an expert at surfing astro-gear, lol!

You almost had to do it with the new building and everything. Very nice.

Not up yet. Too many things on our plates all at once to get that in from the git-go, but it will come.

They are actually all different. There are different adapter plates for the different filters.

My first pass through and I didn't see any of the /50 /100 etc. differences, I think I had a caching or paging issue on my end ... but now everything is displaying correctly.

Thanks Mike, sorry about false alarm
