How do you know if you're using Internet Explorer 6? Well, if you have a yellow bar at the top of YWS asking you to upgrade then that's your clue.

When YWS moves to the new site, I cannot guarantee that those still using IE 6 will be able to view the site. This is because the new YWS takes advantage of a lot of tricks allowed by new browsers but not by IE 6. This is because IE 6 came out in 2001 and is a very old browser by now.

So if you see the yellow bar, please follow the link provided to upgrade. I will try to make sure the new YWS is compatible with IE 6, but I cannot guarantee it.

Are there any other browsers that might not work with the new YWS? I'm using Safari something, and it works alright, although there are some things in the current YWS that don't show. Mostly the avatars in the "Friends" bar, but that's not a problem.

I'm wondering the same thing as Dem but with Firefox. I can see everything, but I'm curious.

I'm guessing you'll need Firefox 3.0, since that's the equivalent of IE 7, only better. :)

If I'm making a post about compatibility problems with IE 6 but don't mention any other browser, then it can very safely be inferred that only IE 6 will be a problem.

My IE looks like it works fine, so I shouldn't have to worry if my Firefox takes another mood swing. xD
