Paul, I appreciate what you are trying to do; however, it seems very easy to navigate; The colored underlined links stand out under the headings very well. Most of the "best of" lists are done this way.

With future listings, we certainly can take your suggestions into consideration.

Again, thanks!

Carol, your browser must work differently (or is there some CN setting that controls that?). All the text and links are the same color on mine, and there is no spacing, so it all runs together! I gave up trying to wade through it, even though I knew there were some goodies. (And I later discovered there were as I played with the text and links!)

Rather than simply kvetch, I was hoping to contribute to the site by doing this for you all! it only took me a couple of search and replaces to get the formatting looking good, including bolded headings. But the links are still pesky.

I'll wager that many, if not most, CN users would find the reformatted type of page easier to navigate, so I'm glad you all will think seriously about a "new and improved" look going forward.

Best wishes and you're welcome!

I think you can accomplish what you are trying to do using the "List" command in message editor.

  • item #1
  • item #2
  • item #3


Just a thought.

Thanks for the telrad objects post. Does anybody know where to find a telrad list of the NGC objects?

Well I've been gone a while, but this is the ultimate list and a great asset to the CN community! Thanks so much for this wonderful addition Carol!

Those are great...I came across many of those charts about 3 years ago when I was searching the net. I had just purchased a 12" dob and a telrad finder. I printed out almost everyone of the charts and made my own Telrad finder charts in a bound format....I carry these with me anytime im out observing...thanks for sharing
