I used IE until about a month after I got my computer it somehow got infested with HORRIBLE spyware. I'd used apple my whole life before that (this is my first pc) and so I'd hardly even heard of spyware and so I was in quite a panic. I was getting full screen porn that would not close popping up on my computer every 5 minutes even when I wasn't browsing the internet. Adaware wouldn't get rid of it, though a quick spybot search and destroy run FINALLY got it under control. After that I downloaded firefox on the reccomendation of an internet friend. I use it though because I genuinely like it better than IE. I don't know where I'd be without tabbed browsing, but the most important use is summarized in two words: TRANSPARENT PNGS. Plus a lot of my web pages just look fugly on IE (especially the ones which use pngs) so I have a little notice at the bottom telling people to dl firefox, lol.

Oh yeah! I forgot all about the tabbing too (like, despite the fact that I use it every day). It's so handy for referencing dozens of pages at once without having dozens of windows open...

Tabbed browsing is even better on macs. XD Instead of having fifty thousand windows all over your computer (with nothing in the doc to help you get back and forth between 'em!) you have one that you can easily cycle through.

Well, I've left that entirely up to you. If you want to do plaques and Yakima wants to do critters, then that's what we'll have; some awards with plaques and some with critters. If someone wants to do full fledged dragons as awards, that's peachy with me. :3 Really, I want to see some variety amongst the awards.
