Will Link for Screenshots
Quick announcement that I will be posting an article featuring a diverse screenshot gallery of the new design. To accomplish this, I need screenshots from as many different operating systems and browsers as possible. Currently, I have access to the following browsers:
Windows XP (Home, SP1)
- Firefox 1.5.0 & 2.0.0
- Opera 8.54 & 9.50
- Internet Explorer 7.0
- Google Chrome 0.2.149
- Flock 0.4.9 (yeah, I know)
Mac OS X (10.4.8)
- Firefox 3.0.1
- Opera 9.23
- Safari 2.0.4
- Camino 1.0.3
Thus, I need screenshots of the Perishable Press home page on any browser/platform not listed. I am doing this not only for the sake of prosperity, but for cross-browser accuracy as well.
To participate, send your screenshot(s) along with the URL for your site. After a week or so of soliciting for screenshots, I will post the collection along with links for everyone who helped. It’s a bribe, I know, but I want those screenshots, so send ‘em in, people!

Have you tried browsershots.org, that should provide you with most of the screen shots you want.

I took this as an afterthought since k-meleon often gives problems (as you can see) feel free to delete these links when you’re done :)
browsershots is great, but the wait time for unusual browsers is a pain, often nearing an hour or so for a full set of screens
Firefox 3.0.3, Mac OS X 10.5.5:

I can help you with IE6 on Windows XP (yep, I don’t find it worth to upgrade, and I also need IE6 for fixing bugs in my designs), and Firefox on Ubuntu Linux.
But then again, Browsershots should be pretty good (I use it often) as comment#1 points out.
Hi Jeff,

For good measure, check your jeff@ for Opera 9.52 on these OSs:
Windows 2000 Professional SP4 (VM)
Windows 98 Second Edition
;)
Here are a couple for you (looks great in both):
Firefox 2.0.0.17 on Linux (on Kubuntu 7.10)

Konqueror 3.5.8 on Linux (on Kubuntu 7.10) http://media.altj.org/200810/pp-konq.png
I might be able to get you a Firefox 3 on Linux later tonight.
Why don’t you try http://browsershots.org/ ? They can help with almost every browser/ OS combination and resolutions.
Works tremendously well.
