Question: Icons in Firefox

Sep 28, 2008 20:16

Given that Internet Explorer is Evil, and Mozilla Firefox is Good, why do my icons look like crap in Firefox? Do they look that crappy to everyone who uses Firefox, and you guys are just too nice to tell me?

( the horror, let me show you it )

technology, icons

Strike that...

I don't know...

I just corrected the code - please try again!

Dude, that was fast!

Hehehe...I'm here all the time, lol.

I'm not sure what's up. It's even happening with the one you just used. *checking mine*

*nodnod* Once of the reasons I picked it. But your "Josh Harris" icon has black lettering and looks just fine. ???

Maybe it's something with the newest version of Firefox, because I remember seeing several of those icons before - and I always use Firefox - and they never looked like that before.

amedia September 29 2008, 01:36:27 UTC

But they look that way now?

pocketwitch September 29 2008, 01:39:00 UTC

Yep. :P I went to your userpics page to check, and yeah, they do.

Thanks - much appreciated! I think I found a fix! (next post)

Eh ... I'm using Firefox, and I've never noticed any wonkiness with your icons.

Thanks for letting me know, sweetie! I'm wondering if it's some combination of the browser and my computer, such that it will affect some people but not all.

Huh. Your icons do look funky when I look at them in FF, but I haven't noticed it before. I've updated to FF3 - maybe that has something to do with it?

Also, even when they look weird, they're fine when I copy and paste them into PSP. So that's . . . really odd.

Odd - but immensely helpful!!!! (see next post)

I've wondered about that. The best I could come up with is that it has something to do with transparent pixels in PSP.

amedia September 29 2008, 01:57:35 UTC

PSP - PlayStation Pro?

verilyverity September 29 2008, 01:58:25 UTC

PainShop Pro. :P

*scratching head*

But I wasn't using PSP - or is it the industry standard on which other graphics editing programs and graphics viewing programs (like browsers) are built?
