More IE6 messages

As detailed in a previous post, I'm stuck with ie6 at work.  I don't know why I want to, but now I'm compelled to collect the various IE6 warnings I get.  I'll keep updating this post as I encounter them (until IT upgrades us, anyway).  Along with my snarky critiques.

I got this message when visiting a designer's portfolio sight.  He couldn't have at least put in more effort to design this message?  Give me something visually to look at since this moron wouldn't even let me continue onto his site. Like he thinks his personal portfolio site has something so special on it that I would bother to make the effort to upgrade.  At least he recommends Firefox, tho.




Did I know that my Internet Explorer is out of date?  Well, duh, Jackhole.  Thanks so much for the info.  But it is hard to be that annoyed when the message is so nicely designed.  But then, my annoyance level goes back up when I find there is no close button and I can't remove the window from the page. 


I'm used to looking at sites with divs I have to scroll endlessly to find.  C'mon.  At least give me the option.  Don't block me out like I'm at a nightclub and I'm not cool enough to get past the velvet rope.  Geez.

Today was a banner day for messages (pun intended haha).






This one was so big it wouldn't even fit on the page horizontally.  I love the pitch for upgrading too.

Bumper crop of ie6 messages today:


Terribly!

ComeOn, cut me some slack!

Makes me think of Bob River's Twisted Christmas Chipmunks Roasting on an Open Fire - "Wrong End, Cowboy!"
