Is it just the my lack of coffee or did they manage to build a website for a microscope without one single example picture taken with that device?

That's a fair criticism of the website and one that we had been meaning to address for a while now. We did start collecting pictures over on this Gitlab wiki but most of the pictures out there that are not listed there yet.

Isn't that because the focus of the project is on the mechanics of the microscope and not the optics? You could show nice photos even with a non-flexure based mechanism. The advantage is the usability.
