A question on Web Design issues, not PHP. I assume many of the visitors are not only programmers, but also know quite a lot in general Web techology.
So, I encountered a tough dilemma recently, when developing a web site (of course
Next day I am testing my site from work, where I have an old monitor (non-LCD) - duh!! -my page is presented to me not quite how I expected! Two issues:
1) My beautiful italic font is not anti-aliased enough, so it turns into a very ugly one! I have read about this issue with italic somewhere in the web, however found no tips on how to make it less of a problem. Have you guys come across a similar issue ? What did you do ? Did you leave the font as is, or remove the italic styling, or found an alternative? For my page, i feel that it is essential for that little text to be italic, however, the vast majority of targeted audience is not expected to be using modern monitors...
2) Some color gradient effects are distorted, and in particular: red-like gradients become yellow-like gradients!
I am not very experienced in graphics yet, but I did always realize that there exist some monitor testing techniques, however always neglected the need to research on that. So please, If you have expertise in what it's all about, I would really appreciate advice, tip or instruction.
Thanks and cheers to all of you here.
