It's okay for a simple layout.
A moving background isn't the best thing to use when you have to read text, that has a transparent background. I also don't care for background music you can't stop. |

Once a page is loaded in firefox, there's no need to use the stop button. If a page loads before I can stop it, the music cannot be stopped. Therefore, why I said that. Obviously. |

I was simply letting you know that it's possible to stop background music and moving gifs in IE because a lot of ppl don't know that. |

I was simply letting you know that it's possible to stop background music and moving gifs in IE because a lot of ppl don't know that. Even so, you should take into consideration the amount of people that don't even post here, that might visit that xanga, and leave id immediately because they do not know how to stop that music. Also, it's probably hell on dialup users. Just because you know how to go around it, or have a fast connection, you don't design it for yourself for the most part, you design it for the viewer. And about many things being misaligned, it's because people don't take the time to make sure that things are okay in both browers; nowadays people are too lazy to do that. Makes the creator look lazy, and just overall makes the viewer not want to even look anymore at the layout, knowing that the creator didn't take the time to consider the viewers. |
