Raine Dog site is up

Postby The MAZZTer » Thu Jan 08, 2009 8:52 pm

Anyone else notice?

http://www.rainedog.com/

Looks like he's fiddling with it. There was no date or keenspot box this morning. Page was missing the title too.

(Psst, DCS, some suggestions if you're reading this: 1) specify a font face for the page, Times New Roman is looking pretty ugly from here, not to mention any browser can pick their own default and 2) use 32-bit PNG for the logo to avoid jaggies. It needs a webpage hack to work in IE6 unfortunately but everyone else supports it natively. [Edit: Or you can just update the gif with the correct color while I'm typing, that works too >_>])

Something like 20% of all web users, or some such (Edit: yeah). Saw some statistics recently. Some people just can't upgrade, either because they're still running Windows 2000 or because IE7 breaks a precious corporate intranet site or something.

Also DCS stuck a 32-bit PNG on the site (the donation image) so I'm puzzled why he's also using GIFs.

Firefox ftw. Image
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

Some people are idiots.

I'm sure you agree with me on this.

Isn't it beautiful, seeing firefox flourish like that while IE dies from starvation in a gutter?

I'd hardly say 45% market share could be considered "dying from starvation." Although Firefox looks like it's going to beat IE very soon.

Safari, meanwhile, appears to be not doing very well, even considering Apple's small market share to begin with (17% by even the most optimistic estimates). So also take into account that a lot of those Firefox stats are from Mac owners.

At the time I was sick, and had taken more cold medicine than the bottle recommended. If you're hard up for ideas, maybe you should try it. Because the story's stayed with me ever since.

I see "Fx" and "Moz." Mozilla owns Firefox. I wasn't aware that it offered any other browser.

EDIT: DCS wrote "semiautobiographical." That's nine syllables with no space or hyphen. And all five main English vowels.

The Mozilla browser preceded Firefox, though I don't know whether it's still actively maintained or not.

they canceled mozilla as a suite, with firefox being just the browser standalone (and thunderbird the standalone e-mail, and so on), and then they started a new thing called "seamonkey" which is the continuation of the mozilla suite.
