New Online Store Update

We're still hard at work developing our new and improved online store. I'm proud to say it's coming along really nicely...I'd say we're maybe 90% of the way there on the "look and feel" and 80% of the way there on functionality. I've found a few minor annoyances with the store software we'll be using and am busy developing work-arounds. Once I'm happy with it then I have to begin the arduos task of importing, testing and tweaking all of our current products. That should be fun.

In the end, I think our customers are really going to like the improvements and the overall polish is a lot higher than our current setup. I've intentionally gone for a layout that is reminiscent, albeit much improved, of our current online store so in a lot of ways the new setup will still feel familiar...just better!

I don't have a definite timeline for the switchover, but if I were a betting man, I'd put my money on "sometime in July."
