Exotica, I didn't mean to direct my comments about leaving out NS users to you. I just don't like seeing statements similar to the one above where web designers dismiss netscape users (or any other non-MS browser). Things are always changing, and while IE is by far the dominant browser today, there is the possibility that it could be very different in a year or two (it wasn't that long ago when Netscape was the predominant browser in use.) Puntomaus, I was referring to IE security problems. There have been weekly bug fixes for IE, most of which could be exploited similarly to the recent KLEZ (which is actually exploiting an older IE vulnerability). I can't blame anyone for avoiding IE like the plague. Also, there is the fact that there are a lot of old computers still running windows (or Mac OS) all of which are perfectly reasonable browsing machines. If you have ever tried to run any of the recent browsers on an old 266 Mhz machine, you will know why upgrading is not necessarily an option. Even on my wife's 350Mhz, most of them are unpleasant to use (haven't tried NS6.2, though, it might be a little more compact than 6.1). eric PS. Exotica, very nice gallery you have there.
