I was going to say the same thing. Although I just ran a crude check on the recent server log entries and IE 8.0 appears to be the most popular version. About 4% of the total logged http requests for the
few days were from IE 6/7/8. This is not really reliable data (and I wouldn't be surprised if some of those requests have spoofed browser ids), but it's still higher than I'd expect. But it's not really a
past problem if
these people don't see the logos on github, so I'd go for using SVG.
Not sure I understand this ? Did you mean IE 9.0 was the most popular IE version? (This is the first to support SVG) or "About 4% of the total logged http requests for the past few days were from IE 6/7/8 " Does this mean that of these 4%, IE8 is the most popular? Are the version of other browsers Chrome, Opera etc new enough to work with SVG? Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
