Firstly, thank you for working hard and releasing something for free to the community.

Not sure if you’re aware but if you use CSS which is unsupported in IE6 it won’t totally break the whole site.

Good designs and builds degrade gracefully, there is no reason that you couldn’t have done that with this theme.

I had a good laugh when I previewed the theme during my lunch break - in IE6. It's such a horrific browser and such a fantastic theme, that I'm going to use MANIFEST anyway. I appreciate the good-natured ribbing IE6 users will see when they land. If they can't see the humor and/or be bothered to upgrade to a reasonable browser, I don't want them lurking around my Web site anyway! Great work and many thanks!</p> I just started using MANIFEST for my newly (re)launched blog. I had a good laugh when I previewed the theme during my lunch break - in IE6.

Even though not fully supporting a browser still bothers me a bit, at least the site is functional and the user is able to use it just fine. Informing the user, and providing an alternative, makes it easy enough that I would hope more would upgrade.

Great theme btw.

Unfortunately, the few visitors to my site predominantly use IE6... I have no idea who they are and cannot force them to upgrade. Hence I can no longer use your wonderful theme. However, I am in total agreement that IE6 should go and never come back!</p> I completely agree.
