    Why make the user select their browser?

    If you really can't code a site that works across all browser platforms, couldn't you at least auto-detect the browser?

    The actual site itself is OK, but the design is rather cluttered IMO. However, my design skills are non-existant, so I'll leave others to give you a better critique on that ;)

    Site: "Select your browser..."

    Visitor: "Nah, I'll just hit the back button instead."

    That said, the site looks pretty decent. I'm not quite sure why you have two colums side-by-side on the left side of the site. It looks like the page loaded incorrectly or something.

    I like the animated favicon! I didn't even realize that could be done.

    Good luck!

    wissam,

    Interesting site. Looks very typical of many sites out there. I too, don't get the reason for having the user choose the browser type. What I would like to know is how you created the animate favicon for SD?

    I didn't know the animated favicon was possible either, but having said that, I also found it rather distracting..

    I think the 2 colums are different, so looks ok.

    RE: Favicon - I never even noticed :(

    The pop up after you hit agree is annoying.

    You should try more plain URLs with no question marks in the URL for easier spidering.

    I choose the incorrect browser type and the site still loaded.

    mkang users choose browser used is not a good i dea i think.. i really think you should auto detect it.. anyway, as for the site it looks cool to me..the page was maximized so it's ok.. it just have a tendency to look a little bit crowded.

    Definitely auto-detect the browser.
