Solving CSS problems for Mozilla Europe

It definitely gets my vote of approval. I've looked at it using Firefox, Opera 7.54 and IE 6 and whilst IE doesn't show the nice rounded box edges it's still a winsome design in my eyes.

I don't think Dunstan's being a copycat, he's being himself, why should he try and be something he's not. If the Girlies can't accept him for being him then it's not the right time.
