Shouldn't need to change browsers, I've used loads of different forums without any problems. I ain't changing browsers everytime I want to log in here.

Thank you Tigi, that is precisely my point.  We shouldn't need to change our browsers.  Sure, some might prefer FF to IE, or GC to FF etc etc etc, but a lot of us are happy using IE.  In fact over 50% of all internet users prefer IE to other browsers.

Anyway, why do I see some avatars and not others? Surely they would all not work?
It's a bit odd.. I can see all the avatars/ smileys on other parts of the site, it's just gaga that's gone a bit wonky for me!

This might sound a bit odd, but it works ( thanks to growly for this!) - if you click on the red cross box it'll take you to the poster's profile page.. hit the back button and as if by magic you'll get their avi on here!

I think that high percentage has a lot to do with IE coming bundled with any Microsoft Operating System and many people just default to using it rather than having the desire or capability to go out and get FF or Chrome. I don't think it indicates a 'preference' as such.

I would, however, agree about the w3c errors. I just ran it too and a lot of the errors are trivial but, as they are errors, the way they are dealt with by the different browsers may well vary depending on how these various exceptions are treated

So I have to install a new web browser in order to be able to use this website properly? :-/
I had to install Mozilla Firefox even to get onto the old forum ..... With Internet Explorer I couldn't even access any of the old GaGajoyjoy forum

Works fine with MF though

We have both IE & MF on the desktop now so we can use either

I'm using IE latest version, and I see some, not others. Have no intention of changing or adding a browser when the one I've got works okay on other sites I visit. Surely, if you can see some avatars, you should be able to see them all? What code makes it so that some you see, some you don't?

As IE is the most used browser, surely this site should cater for them?

Not moaning, just commenting!

And I agree with you. It's my only complaint about here really.
