I checked with my older Mozilla at work, and it seemed okay ... I might upgrade just to see what is happening. I'm more interested than anything else. I don't know why browsers need to treat things differently. Even with XHMTL and CSS, there are still things that one browser will handle differently to another. It would be good if things were standard.

Yeah, I can see what you mean, that's why it's good that Sydney allowed us to use her skins, as it means users have a choice whether to use a basic skin or a more graphical orientated skin.

But I did notice that vBulletin does seem to reload all of the images when you go to a new page [sometimes, not all of the time] ... unless it is a setting with my brower, but I don't notice it happening with a webpage. For example, if I go to one of Oddworld-Web's pages, it will only load the layout the first time, then it just loads the content. Which is much more efficient and faster.

Maybe they use frames, but that won't work with a forum.

As for the diversity of Browsers, I think it's all healthy! (Although I do hate the CSS colour/format differences between Mozilla and IE. My site can't look good on both!)

Different browsers are good as it means people can choose to not use Micro$oft's one if they don't want to ... but the fact they all treat some parts of code differently is a pain ... it makes web designing a nightmare at times.

When do we see the native one? I'm dying of anticipation.

It's probably going to be a while away, as I am working on getting OWW's content up to date first. And next month I have another costume to make for an anime convention which is in August, which will take up a lot of my time.

I have Mozilla Firefox, and quite a few of the images seem to be out of place :/
Here is what it looks like...

Hmmm, it's almost like there is an extra image in there. I might need to upgrade to that browser or install it here on this PC. But it certainly is looking weird to me.

Yeah, that's what it does on my Mac... that line thing under the slig's feet.

However, the weird placement of the names (on the side of the post going vertically) went away after I posted something. Every time I sign in (which isn't a problem considering I'm almost always signed in) the names and avatars are on the side, but when I post something, they move to the top and stay there.

Not as big a problem as the lines under the slig, though.

Probably Peter can answer that second problem better than I can. It sounds like something to do with the vBulletin option that allows users to have either a vertical or horizontal postbit. Does it do something similar in the other two styles or just industrial? If it's just industrial, maybe I've missed something somewhere along the lines.

The second problem sounds weird. It does sound like the alternating postbit layouts, however, it shouldn't be doing what you're saying it is doing :| Although, I guess you could try adjusting or testing the different layouts by changing the option in the User CP > Edit Options > Posbit Layout
