    That's pretty nice. It's useful too. It has a good look, but it took me a few seconds to see what it is actually for. Maybe try to make it more obvious somehow, but i did tag it on de.licio.us !

    Very cool, I'm bookmarking this one.

    I would suggest the text on the left be lighter though. It's a bit hard to read on my screen.

    Yup, I like the tool. I also would recommend that you add a sentence or two about what it is.

    Thanks for the comments guys. I will try to make a more prominent note about what it is and I will lighten up the text on the left a bit too.

    It looks a little off in Safari. I do like the color scheme, though. :)

    I don't have the ability to test with Safari (still waiting for the perfect model macbook pro to come out. sold my old one too soon :( ), but look at it using an online tool I got this. I'm confused as to the problem though. The form elements definitely don't style properly, but it's the PNG images I'm confused about. I ran the PNG's through PNGcrush before publishing to remove the color information, and the site and IE displays them properly. I was unaware that Safari too has a gamma correction issue, but after a quick search it seems that pre-Tiger Safari doesn't display PNG images correctly if the color display data is omitted. DoH!

    I'll see what I can dig up regarding some more browser sniffing. What's one more conditional style sheet on top of the FF/IE/Opera I'm already running ;)

    Cheers on the great comments though.

    When you generate, in IE6, the result seems to get shoved to the very bottom rather than floating left, so it took me a while to find the result. Nice site though.
