Whilst working on some improvements to Rent a Gite in Frankreich, I decided to check that the changes I’d made the the theme I was using hadn’t broken anything in the various browsers, and I did this using a free tool called Browser Shots.
This tool is invaluable to website designers as it allows you to check how your website design renders on the various browsers without having to actually install them all.
This is important as not all browsers are the same: IE7 renders websites in a completely different manner to (the much hated by web designers) IE6, and even Chrome, Firefox and Safari have their differences. If you only test on 1 browser, you might be oblivious to a minor issue which is making your website unreadable on 70% of the internet population’s computers. I’ve particularly found this to be the case for ‘DIY’ websites I’m asked to look at, especially those created with cheap / free software.
So if you want to see how the rest of the world sees your site, head over to Browser Shots, submit your URL, and then review the screenshots you’re provided.
