IE Sucks!

Filed under: Website — Cameron at 5:05 pm on Sunday, February 12, 2006

For those of you that know me, you’ll know that I firmly believe IE sucks. For those of you that don’t, prepare to “see the light” and be converted :P

Here’s what the Flash Rovers website should look like:

What Firefox users see

And that’s exactly what users of standards compliant browsers will see. Firefox, Mozilla Suite, Seamonkey, Camino, Safari, Opera – they all see that.

But IE users see this:

Aaaargh!

Simon – Yes I know, I’ve worked around the problem by posting a non-antialised image. This means that it’s crappy and the edges are squarey. Sometime when I get around to it, I’ll make it so users of good browsers see the nice smooth image, and IE users just get the crappy squarey one.
