    Hi,
    Looking for people to have a quick look at the site below.

    There's a Java applet on the main page, so am a bit wary about potential browser lockups, graphics glitches etc...

    Site is - http://papersnow.com/

    Not especially looking for design criticism, but if you feel the need to.. :D

    Thanks :)

    Do you have Java installed?

    Hmmm it's probably the delay from the advertisement blocking the body onload event.. might take that trigger out... thanks!

    FF/XP looks fine. Checked on IE6/XP too and loaded fine.

    It does take about 10-12 seconds to load the image first time round though.

    Looks fine in FireFox (xp) except when you click on a new image the java loading thing appears on the left, over the text... not sure if its ment to do that...

    There is a minor overlap of div class "toptext-tips" with the above tables for random pick in:
    XP Firefox v2.0.0.11 (Screenshot 1)
    XP Safari v3.0.4 (Screenshot 2)

    I'm not sure how to resolve this. maybe using CLEAR property might do the trick but I'm not sure.

    Otherwise, the layout works well in:
    XP Opera v9.25
    XP IE v7.0

    If you are interested in testing your site in previous version of IEs you can always check out this one.

    Thanks everyone!

    Re: Java applet loading position, it seems to have a mind of it's own really, not sure if there is an easy way to control it as it seems to be a bit browser dependent.

    Thanks a lot for that xfahmix, just noticed it earlier this evening, fixed it.

    RAFC - Cheers! ...but you might change your mind if you were there the past few days! http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22309920/
