Yea, the user page deviantART has is something dA needs more kudos on. Jark has been a real visionary on the creation of on-line communities. Every time I read some magazine interviewing some net "pioneer" creating some lame web community I think "That should be Scott (Jark)!".
What we have in mind isn't quite the same as deviantART. Remember, at the end of the day, deviantART is a art site so it has a different focus to it. But the basic concept is similar - a way for each user to have their own page that they can order up how they want to show off what they've done.
We really want to put in more work to focus on the people who create the content. To provide more ways for skinners to be appreciated for their work. And eventually, we want skinners who want a way to sell some of their work to have a mechanism to do that.

Thanks for asking!Reply #4 Monday, May 3, 2004 4:40 PM
I get the feeling it may be more Opera's fault but since yours is the only site I've seen it on, I may be wrong (or it may even be 50/50 for fault). It seems to manifest worse on some themes that others, if you need more info feel free to email me...
To summerise: Please include Opera in your test suite in future

And firefox and mozilla (and netscape) may have different GUIs.. but they are all running the Gecko rendering engine underneath.. any differences are only due to different versions of Gecko.. and also to the reference.. Opera has a far superior rendering engine to IE.. that browser should never be recommended to anyone.. ever..
(P.S. fat chance of getting me to use anything other than Opera.
