After seeing poll's result, I'm quite shocked seeing quite number of visitors dislike this new website. So I ran into stats and check for visitors' browser and found interesting things that over 50% of visitors still use Internet Explorer 6 which doesn't support alpha-blending in PNG image format, resulting the ultimately suck UI with white as background floor.

To fix this issue, please upgrade your Internet Explorer to version 7.0 or other browsers like Firefox, Opera or Safari immediately. Not just for viewing this website in better manner but for your safety as well since Internet Explorer 6 has a lot of security flaws and has slow rendering system that is out-performed by today's engines. It also comes with no tabbed browsing support which cause more windows appear in desktop and make a messy room in your monitor.

I apologize for making this design become incompatible with Internet Explorer 6 since I thought most users has switched to Internet Explorer 7 already. I'll try to find a way to make it viewable with Internet Explorer 6 if possible but for your best browsing experiences, please step away from Internet Explorer 6.

UPDATE: I added JavaScript to change CSS to ones I made for Internet Explorer 6.0 or below based on old website design so at least it should be more readable.

Well, I am of course using Firefox but IE7 doesn't work at all. I made my own redistributable IE7 package so I first tried to uninstall IE7 original one from MS update. But what do you think happened...... of course it didn't work that's why I stay away from new MS products.
