IE 6
The internet café I’m at only seems to have IE 6 available. Upon checking out the redesign, I’ve found that it doesn’t look too good on this browser. (I would have checked this earlier, but I don’t have IE 6 on any of my computers at home.)
My recommendation: if you’re viewing this on IE 6, you really really really REALLY need to get a new browser.
If you have IE6, you need to get a new browser anyway.
(Flock/Firefox purist here)
Not sure what the nature of the problems is, but I imagine it has to do with poor CSS support. Check out Dean Edwards’s IE8.js — it implements CSS properly in Internet Explorer, and you can include it in a conditional HTML comment so only IE users will download it. http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/
IE6? You must be in Brazil already.
Indeed! It’s not the fanciest internet place, but it’s super-convenient and it gets the job done.
As for the IE 6 problems, Carlo, I think CSS is one (big) part of it. But another problem is that it doesnt support .png transparency, which I make heavy use of. There may be some kind of fix, but I’ll have to look into it when I get home.
You probably don’t want that audience anyway.
