ICDF Site News:

New Site Design

April 21st, 2008

Well, that’s one advantage to insomnia. On the flip side though, it means my head hasn’t been quite straight towards the finish. I’ve tried it out and it seems to be working alright, but like with any new design there may be some bugginess hiding away somewhere.

Functionally the site is pretty much the same - it’s more superficial change to the layout that’s hopefully cleaner and simpler.

If you come across any issues though, please let us know.

Ultimate Netspeak

Posted by Eddie on the 22nd April, 2008

lol. afk. omg. rofl. brb.

These days we simply don’t have time to use whole words. In this new age, only the first letter is required.

Purists may bemoan the erosion of language, but you can’t stop progress, baby.

And so - in the interests of keeping the classics relevant for future generations - I present you with F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic The Great Gatsby, rewritten entirely in netspeak.

IE6

Posted by Tjin on the 22nd April, 2008

For those of you using IE6 I’ve managed to kinda fix the layout issues occuring. The  only trouble I am experiencing is the news post RHS borders getting cut off, but at least the RHS sidbar isn’t getting pushed to the bottom. As far as I can tell, Firefox 2/3b, IE7/8, Safari and Opera all work fine. Also Konqueror and the like seems fine aswell (email me if im wrong - see our contacts page).

If you’re building pages too, and like me are not web designers, there’s a great service for checking the rendering of your site in browsers  you don’t actually have installed on your system: http://browsershots.org/

It generates images your site for not only browsers, but operating systems too. You can check, for example, not only Firefox in Windows, but on Linux and MacOS! There’s no point alienating any part of your audience, even if thier specs represent only a small portion of your viewers (our audience is 90% Firefox). This great service/tool will allow you to easily check whether anyone will be missing out on your hard work designing your sites layout.
