I'm in a significantly better mood after discovering that cycling hurts this sprained ankle less than walking. Thanks to everyone who was lovely to me when I was feeling rubbish the other day.

I maded a website! All by myself and I didn't even steal a little bit of anybody else's code.

The logo went slightly pixelly when I changed the .png to a .gif (bloody IE6 not supporting .png transparency) but it now works in every browser I've tested it in.

I am aware that everybody else acquired these skills in utero but I am nevertheless exceedingly proud of my baby-steps towards actually having some tech skills.

Also, this news pleases me: Oxford cops reprimanded for tobogganing on riot shields.

Yay! :D

You can use conditional comments to display the GIF in IE6 and the PNG in all other browsers. Description here (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537512(VS.85).aspx) and implementation example (on now horribly out-of-date site - I wish someone from the new committee would contact me about taking it off my hands. I even gave them a copy of Expression Web to use...) here (http://ed.mvps.org/oxice/). They seem to break code validity, but work on every browser I've tested on.
