Another nice, clean site there Sir. Though I can’t help but want to use the rolling pin to squish things

Very nice. CSS3 buttons are definitely the way to go when you have an SEO sensitive website, and your example is definitely a convincing reason to get rid of image assets and move forward. Too bad IE9 is the first IE to actually use HTML5 and CSS3.

Oops, bad maths there! Well spotted Serge, I think I was flicking between gamer cards all the time and I think I must have taken the total from my card and the actual trophy amounts from someone elses!

Thanks for the comments people!

That does look great! Would really like if the gamer cards actually looked like that…

By the way, I know it’s just a mockup but your trophy count doesn’t add up in the first two images!

This looks really great, I’d buy a PS3 if the gamercards look like that!

What an excellent article and a fantastic point you raise. I work in a similar way to yourself in that I have to support IE6 & IE7 whilst I am at work but have not desire to support them in my personal projects.

I also agree that we should not be protesting against IE6 & IE7 users as in most cases it is completely out of their control what browser they are using and most of them are aware their browser is out of date. At the end of the day it is our job to develop websites and not to be arguing with IT managers over whether they should be upgrading their browsers.

Well said! I’m intending to just provide a polite upgrade message for IE6 users on my site. It’s got to be time to cut them lose by now!
