Hey all,

Just noticed that Internet Explorer 7 is rubbish at displaying the images  from the mini gallery. The images are reduced to fit the screen and quality looks terrible. It's OK if you use the zoom button to display them full size though. Tested with Firefox and as you might expect there is no such issue. Had a quick google and there appears to be no evident fix although a few others moaning about the same issue.

As always the advice is to get off IE and install firefox. Will check out Opera again tonight, although can't say I noticed any issues there either.

If you find that the right hand column overlaps the comic page or central column this is probably because your screen resolution is less than 1280 pixies wide AND you're using internet explorer 6 or below.

Internet Explorer is very poor at interpreting CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) which is a standard that is used most often these days to format webpages. In particular it doesn't know what a min_width command is so consequently you'll get the columns overlapping each other. I can't fix this. Or possibly I can, but a better solution would be to either upgrade your browser to IE7 - it's by no means perfect but is far superior to IE6 - or better still move to an altogether better browser like firefox or opera.
