I was hoping it wouldn't be another polyfill. I use picturefill.js (and subsequently matchmedia.js), as I feel it's use is ultimately for the greater good, but I'm not a fan of polyfills. If I can avoid adding any weight, then all the better. I don't use modernizr in every project either - though it's very handy - but shapes seem like a tough thing to do a fallback for without it. A fallback for shapes looks like a bit of work, as opposed to the fallback for rem units, for example. Seems like using modernizr to help you swap images with something that allows legible text to run over it would be simplest. Next would be layout changes, moving the images to another place on the page so the text doesn't crash into it. Obviously it depends on each situation... -- Tom Livingston | Senior Front-End Developer | Media Logic | ph: 518.456.3015x231 | fx: 518.456.4279 | mlinc.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
