Test your web design

This site in Galeon on Ubuntu.

A snapshot of how this site looks using Galeon on Ubuntu.



A free online service called Browsershots is available for web site developers to test how their sites look in different browsers and on different operating systems. You’re able to select from various options and then submit for screenshots to be created.

In my case it took over half an hour. I had gone with all the default options for creating the screenshots and there were no surprises.

On the Linux versions my Flash plugins were missing. Apart from that, this site came up well in all browsers. I’m now using the Anaconda theme for WordPress.

I’ve never actually used Apple’s Safari, so I was keen to test how my site looked on a Mac.

Update: I am now using the Genesis Framework theme.
