about/

Made just before I left for Tokyo to work for Furifuri, this is a design for the WCRS homepage that ran for about 2 years. (since 2001)

I remember we had an insane amount of problems getting the menu to work, as transparent effects were not really cross browser compatible at the time. In the end we found out that internet explorer and netscape on the PC could use a directX feature, while the Mac (on which we developed) could use PNG alpha, with a bit of Javascript serving to move it around / identify the platform.

PNG alpha has only just been supported on the PC, some 5 years late!
