If so, yes.

Not too serious – I do want trackbacked posts to rise up – just slightly confusing you’ve already read the comment.

Shame. IE has no good reason to ignore proportional image sizes – it has the tech to scale them, it just refuses if doing so would render them smaller than original size.

We’re back to the right column intruding if zoomed, both on that post and this, but I’d like to be clear that I don’t consider that a major problem in itself – only if it’s the same thing Lack said he was having all the time in FF2.

I’ve gone back and reconjigulated an old post to try a new way of using screenshots. I’m interested to know whether a) it works for you and b) you approve of it. It’s something that simply can’t be done in IE 6, so I’ve set it up not to bother if that’s what you’re using. BrowserShots suggests it also doesn’t work in IE 8, and won’t let me test IE 7, so if you have either of those I’m all ears.

It’s just an experiment at the moment, I thought until recently it couldn’t be done at all.

But mostly I’m posting this to check nothing breaks if I comment twice in a row now.

Formerly Muffin: welcome to my life. Need a dialogue option for “Ignore everyone and spout tediously detailed coding gripes,” though.

Nonomu: I got rid of the Comics box because I just haven’t been reading any of them consistently enough to recommend lately. Qwantz is the only one good enough to make it into the other list, which is basically the best eight things on the internet.

I’ve always wanted to put all the outgoing links on the left hand side, but I couldn’t back when browsers had to load that column before they’d start rendering the main content – Flickr, Google Reader and Twitter all frequently stall.

Infact make this blog more communist, step by step, until you have a secret police force and every time someone misses one of his daily checks on your blog, they’re eliminated by the Cheka.

This is not James 2.x any longer. It is.. James 2.x special edition.

Looks like someone – you? – submitted this place to it yesterday in 90 browsers.

Uh-oh, rumbled!

The joke is only funny when you hit the big red button on that page.

Also where is your picture :(
And why are the images on the left side and the random on the right side?
Why, Tom, why?!

e.g. “Other than that, the only casualties seem to be super-old browsers and obscure Linux ones, both of which can go to hell if they can’t follow simple standards.comment_author_email”

B – I did try that site some time ago, but the queue to get the shots was absurd at the time. Looks like someone – you? – submitted this place to it yesterday in 90 browsers. Some fairly major ones just haven’t loaded anything at all in those shots, I’m not sure it gave them time. All of them cut from this post to halfway through Mass Effect one – I’m assuming that’s by design to show you the bottom of the page, or something has gone badly wrong. Other than that, the only casualties seem to be super-old browsers and obscure Linux ones, both of which can go to hell if they can’t follow simple standards.

Also (Probably an obvious answer for this that I’ve overlooked), why did you feel it necessary to include in your post a screenshot of the website that we’re already on?

The next thing to go wrong, though, I really am just going to say ‘fuck it’.

*ask politely?

Should I just… leave out the back way?
