I checked the site from home yesterday, looks pretty cool. :up:
Can I change my video on the filmstrip thingie?

Once I've put the text on the images Koop gave me, upload them, and add some things in the database, it will randomly choose 6 images out of the entire pool whenever someone opens the page.

Yeah, the site breaks and IE6 can't properly display alpha transparency in PNG files so I coded the site to check for the browser people use.  To site will display the new layout in anything except IE6.  I was able to test the page on Opera, IE7, and Firefox.  I'm not sure if any other browsers other than IE6 break. : / To see what happens in IE6 you can view a test file I was using:

Why didn't you use something like this?

Right now PNG isn't the primary issue but I've bookmarked the page in case I can figure out the CSS for IE6.  It isn't tooo much of an issue at the moment since requests for the ie6 stylesheet are only 12% of the total requests for both stylesheets.  It doesn't help that I don't have IE6 to quickly test my changes to the style...

EDIT:

I think we're done adding new members for a long while.  Besides, Brad likes being in his own personal studio.   :P

I updated the layout using a second stylesheet to redefine certain elements if an ie6 or earlier browser is detected.  I used the png-fix javascript madman pointed me to as well.  Unfortunately it does not work on the background images so I've removed the drop shadows on those so the page looks somewhat decent.  This is as good as it is going to get for ie6 browsers...
