Dig the groovy fabness which is the pictorial backdrop. If you're looking at this with Mozilla, it looks nice. If you're using IE, it looks like a mess. Specifically, the image under the text scrolls with the text when it shouldn't. Again, this is down to IE not working to the CSS specification. If you haven't already done so, give mozilla a try. It's at v1.0 now, after years of solid development. It's completely compliant with the specifications and pretty fast too.
