I can't image why someone would do this, instant decline here.

omfg, nice text format, especially on warning page...

damn, in IE it looks normal

[Cleo]

I was wondering if it looked right in Windows IE. On all the Mac browsers it is an unreadable mess.

Hey Cleo
You might do a reverse on that IP - scroll down to the "F"'s and you'll find an interesting surprise Especially if you go to that domain and do a view source where they are hotlinking an ico file

Damn it makes my eyes hurt in Nutscape

Firefox isn't showing that text any love either. What an odd ball.

Looks ok to me in ie.
And I think 99% of the world uses ie?

Yep, I think its important for webmasters to design for both Firefox and Mozilla's Gecko Engine and IE.

I design for Firefox first then I 'fix' it for IE. Usually I'm using a handful of tricks I learned over the years to make IE display things like Firefox does naturally (mostly when it comes to CSS).

I agree, if it looks like shit under the Gecko engine then it should be declined.

There's a new web browser war brewing.

I surf using Safari and I do reviews in Mac IE so when I see crap like this it is an instant decline.

It looks fine to me with IE.
I wonder which is better. A browser that works even when there is a screw up or one that is so unforgiving?

I add this site in my LL, in opera 7.21 and IE 6.0 it's look fine

I guess that depends on which error. All browsers correct for errors but they all handle different errors differently.

The real problem is when you code something and the browser thinks it is an error and doesn't display it the way you wanted because it is not explicitly reading the code and instead is executing the code as the programer thinks it should be instead of how it is coded.

Things only always work properly if both the coding and the browser conform to standard.

since a couple of days i am using firefox, for real the guys site looks good in ie, i think every browser has his thing, with fire fox i get all the time download, plug in, which make me tired, i also notice in firefox that some banners wont show up but the alt text of the banner does, if the guy builds in ie he dont know, same as me i build in ie, what looks good for me dont have to look good in other browsers and there is no way you can make the site the samelook in all browsers.

Interesting: page really looks totally o.k. in IE, and a mess in Modzilla!

But what hurts my eyes more is the terrible background, and I have seen so many like this on free sites, that it leads to my question:
is a bad background essential to get listed on LLs, or at least part of a really good sales pitch?

another perspective

all my stats show over 85% of my visitors use ie/opera. this is the same for both mainstream and adult sites. from a business/money standpoint isn't this who i should focus my time/resources and coding on.

Yes I think you should. Do not could for the other 15%. I will be happy to take care of them for you.

This also is a great hedge for me, kind of like buying a future, as my pages will also work in all future browsers.
