I currently making a petz site, but looks like puke on Internet Explorer. I works fine on every other browser then Internet Explorer. xD I just wondering how many people this will affect. Also I wanna just know what browsers people use on the Petz Community. =3 (I use Firefox <333)

I think lots of people use IE, of course, you might want to get more opinions on how it looks from IE users. Or put a little disclaimer that it looks best in another browser.

I love IE, and hate everything else. Never really noticed why people like Firefox so much, it's always messes up for me.

^ I feel the opposite XD
IE is slow, buggy and bogs down my computer.. I duno I've been using Firefox for 6ish years and I never have any major issues. To each their own I suppose.

eh, I had the same problem with SPK Moonflower. I used IE for a long time...until I discovered Firefox, which, to me is 1,000 times better than IE. If I try to run IE on this computer, it's soooo slow compared to Firefox.
Anyways, from what I've seen with my own site, it's about a 50, 50 split with Firefox and IE...so you would do best to either put at the top "Best viewed using Firefox" and give a link to the dl. Or else somehow figure out how to make it work in both. Before mine only worked well in IE, but Ela helped me make it work in both. Not sure how >.>

Mozilla only. IE is a horrible horrible device that has a lot of cross browser issues, is buggy, and has compatibility issues with a lot of my website stuff. It is a piece of crap. I have used Mozilla for... oh... 5 or 6 years now? I would never go back to IE because of the CB problems it has.

Wow...my IE works like magic on a 3 year old laptop that I own. Super fast, and no bugs at all. Maybe mine is just special. <3

I stopped using Internet Explorer a couple of years ago. I adore Firefox. ... Wasn't there a really awful problem/flaw with IE discovered recently? This issue, maybe? I don't know. As I said, I don't use it anymore.

I adore Firefox, especially since I finally updated it a few days ago. I never used Firefox until my IE browser kept randomly closing on me [telling me some myspace page had an error or something] and kept losing stuff I was typing on forums or something. I was told Firefox can close due to problems too, but will open up exactly where you left off. I love being able to close it and save so next time I log on I'm right where I was. Plus if you leave it open for a few days it doesn't bog down the computer while IE does. I never use IE anymore. My computer seems to like Firefox much better.

As I said, I don't use it anymore. Internet Explorer has had numerous of "Flaws" surface and have made multiple patches for their browser. Its annoying and stupid. Their Cross browser "flaw" is the most annoying... the browser doesnt read HTML properly and decifers pixels in a different manner... In most browsers 100 pixels is 100 pixels, but in IE it occasionally bumps it to a couple pixels above 100 or below 100, which can reap havoc on many layouts... Ugh! There is no IE patch out there to correct their CB issues, though, so regardless of how "non buggy" someone's IE is, they still will have CB issues.

Stupid IE is messing with the pixels!!! 0_o

Haha yes, Moonflower... It is easier to fix when you have table layouts, but when working with IFrames, it really makes things difficult (since if the IFrame is proper sized in Mozilla/others, it may be big in IE making it distort... any smaller and it looks odd in Mozilla but not in IE).
IE also has hex colour code issues and though there are millions of colour possibilities in hex code, IE doesn't recognize them all and will portray it as some bizarre colour if it doesn't recognize it.
