Does The Site Look Weird To You?

domer.mq - 5:02 pm

If it does, and by “look weird,” I mean, “the logo is all screwed up, with a white or gray background, and everything is misaligned,” then it’s time to upgrade your browser.

We’re not going to radically change the look and feel of the site, but we’re going to evolve a few things. The more modern browsers will let us do things that the older browsers (read: IE 6) wont. The slight changes to the look and feel of HLS this weekend will serve as a good litmus test for you to determine if your browser is “old.”

If, indeed, your browser is old, then go get a new one. Might I highly recommend Firefox 3?

    I have a Firefox parked in my garage.
    I bought it at auction when the USSR went belly up.

    BK, you just say that because you like men.

    And drapes.

    Jim,

    I’d be careful about admitting that. Looks like the USSR may get revived. They might want that thing back.

    Is the background supposed to look like a silky blue curtain? I use Safari and am just wondering if the integration with my browser is a little off or spot on.

    Thanks in advance.

    Brian,

    Yeah. I like it so far. I just wanted to add some depth to it. It was feeling very flat in this modern web world. Might try some other techniques, but mostly I just wanted to add depth. We look at this thing every day. Needed to spruce it up a bit.

    Biscuit,
    If only the world knew why I find your situation so funny.
    It’d be right up there with my company not supporting browsers that were released 2 years ago.

    I knew you’d like it. Dammit.
