UltraCart will automatically offload graphic, CSS, JS, etc. off to the CDN (content delivery network) for faster page loading times.

Original Filename | Suffix | Reason |
|---|---|---|

site_g.css | _g | GZip compressed |
site_m.css | _m | Minified Content |
site_mg.css | _mg | Minified and GZip compressed Content |
