I can certainly say, that on my 3000, Voyager cannot show
anything like a reasonable graphic. I have tried every single
combination... spending a few hours changing one thing at a
time and looking at the results, and NONE of them look even
close to IBrowse 2.1. I can tell what the colours must be
at least with IBrowse, but with AWeb or Voyager, it is total
ugliness, and seems restricted to 4-8 colours. With the
colours I have, it is shades of blue and grey.
Don't tell me to try the various settings, cuz I have done
so, and had varying shades of very bad results. IBrowse
worked correctly right off the Net.
Yes, I have only a stock 3000 using ECS, but that is what
a lot of people use, and from what I see with IBrowse, it
can be done very easily. Fact is, neither V or AWeb have
the same graphics power of IB. Period!
IBrowse seems to ignore the colour settings I have in
my system when it comes to displaying images, and uses
what the image itself seems to say. The others use what
I have selected via the Pallette Prefs.
