Getting different image background colours and bad alignement as well...

Hi, im fuser and ive just created yesterday (and im still working on it) a site called Wikli (www.wikli.com) .. basically its a site where you can search all of the wikipedia content. For example, when you search for something at wikipedia, it only shows you the page title. Wikli shows you the title, a brief description of it and the url. Im still thinking of some features to add but thats another story.

Here the trouble. Ive tested Wikli on Firefox, IE (for mac), Opera and Safari. On Firefox and Opera, the logo looked great. On Internet Explorer for MAC and Safari on the other hand, the logo had darker background that made it look awful.. why is this happening?

Also, when you go to www.wikli.com/about , the text is not aligned correctly... how can i fix this?

Thanks everybody for your help,

fuser

Try using an image format other than .png, or try using websafe (256) colors.

For the about page, I'm assuming you want the page centered and justified. One way to do this is to text-align: center; on the body element, and for the text block use text-align: justify; and margin: 0 auto; and width: 600px; (or whatever width you prefer).

Ok, for one IE for MAC is a DEAD browser, so don't tie yourself into knots making a site that looks good in that browser.

Secondly, Mac's and PC's have always had fairly dramatic differences in the way they display colors. "Web safe" is almost pointless any more given the current technology for video cards and displays.

If you were using a transparent PNG for the logo, IE doesn't support PNG transparency (IE 7 does).
