That's... horrifying.

Really, FIVE browsers on your desktop?

ZH/Franky · Post by **ZH/Franky** » Sun May 11, 2008 11:04 am

Yeah, you need that many browsers to test designs on, to ensure cross-browser compatibility.

(Btw, I have 9 browsers actually -- Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Internet Explorer 4, Internet Explorer 5.01, Internet Explorer 5.5, Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 7, Opera, Netscape.)

Post links/thumbnails instead of breaking my screen, and I might post mine.

less linux browser?

ZH/Franky · Post by **ZH/Franky** » Sun May 11, 2008 11:42 am

On Linux, I only really test on Konqueror.

Most people use Ie, Opera, Or Firefox, so it's all right.

Anyway, back on topic.

Well.... you STILL haven't ensured nothing will break. Just that it won't break under most versions of MSIE, and selected versions of Opera, Gecko, and Safari. If you're worried about IE4, you really oughta be testing Netscape 4.x as well.

Firefox and Netscape 5+ both use the Gecko rendering engine(though 8 allows you to choose the Mozilla or MSIE engine), so you're duplicating effort there. That's really the primary eye-raiser, especially given no one really used Netscape 5+.

If you want to check different versions of the Gecko engine, there's probably a better way to do it than having Netscape installed.

You're right, though, I missed some icons.

My desktop's not fit to be screen-shotted right now.

Well, I really don't give two shits about Ie 4 actually.
It's just on there because the "MultipleIe" installer put it there.

Firefox automatically updates itself, so most people using firefox will be running the latest version.
Though I really do wish they'd hurry up on Firefox 3. The beta is just so awesome.

Delete the shortcut, then?

ZH/Franky · Post by **ZH/Franky** » Sun May 11, 2008 12:21 pm

Ah, ok.
>_<

These are just the most used shortcuts, or programs that I start by drag'n'dropping files onto the icon.

Umm, go to config>video, and select one of the fullscreen options?
(find out your desktop resolution, then set that resolution on one of the "ODS F" options).

This thread isn't about showing what zsnes looks like in fullscreen though

Running Litestep as shell, but still not quite satisfied (I really hate that it can't add a shortcut to a dynamic folder menu because it doesn't support drag and drop behaviours). I heard some LS plugins support shell drag'n'drop, but I am too lzay to seacrh for them, let alone attempting to configure it.
