If a viewer doesn't care enough to use a browser that actually renders photographs well and is capable of running all the latest additional display technology properly, why should I write dumbed down display code to satisfy the inabilities of IE? Furthermore, IE doesn't run on Mac OS X at all anymore, hasn't since 2005 when Mac OS X v10.4 shipped. I'm interested in photographers and photo buyers viewing my work, and statistics from PDN show that 70-80% of them run FireFox on either Windows or Mac OS X, and the rest run Safari again on either platform.
