John:  I don't want to sound bitchy, so please don't take this that way, but what you did makes the three figures in the 'guilt' article into solid black boxes on my monitor, as the CZ logo was in the Main Page's talk page not long ago.  And if you would put them under each other, instead of side-by-side, the full width of the text would fit on my screen and so be readable, which it wasn't the way I had it and still isn't.  (On the other hand, I'm the one person in the world who doesn't have any reason to read it.)  Anyhow, thanks much for your prompt attention to it, and I leave it in your capable hands, to tinker with further or not as the spirit moves you. -- k kay 00:24, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

== Martial Arts In Culture of Japan ==


Sure thing, I'll get on writing something for the Culture of Japan. I think I'll write about martial arts in Japanese culture, as judo is just part of it, along with sumo, karate, samurai culture etc. I'm not sure I can place everything in perfect context, as I'm not a resident of Japan, but perhaps somebody else can check on that later.

Guilt in U.S. law

John: I don't want to sound bitchy, so please don't take this that way, but what you did makes the three figures in the 'guilt' article into solid black boxes on my monitor, as the CZ logo was in the Main Page's talk page not long ago. And if you would put them under each other, instead of side-by-side, the full width of the text would fit on my screen and so be readable, which it wasn't the way I had it and still isn't. (On the other hand, I'm the one person in the world who doesn't have any reason to read it.) Anyhow, thanks much for your prompt attention to it, and I leave it in your capable hands, to tinker with further or not as the spirit moves you. -- k kay 00:24, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

PNG images appear that way in IE6.  —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 00:55, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

Only sometimes -- they were already PNG images when I posted them, and I could see them then but spreading too wide across the page for me to read the article text. From the discussion about the CZ logo, it seems to have to do with filling with transparent instead of a color, and Larry Sanger observed that a large percentage of users are using the older versions, and he was the one who figured out what to do so I could see it again. -- k kay 01:49, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

What did he suggest because i note that the main page is still using a transparent version. Should we not be uploading transparent PNG's? Chris Day (talk) 02:04, 2 August 2007 (CDT)
