    It's not WebKit based. The WebKit browsers are Chrome and Safari for the desktop. There you have the two largest technology companies in the world pushing the envelope. For mobile (phones, pads), the browsers are all WebKit based.

    I used to be a Firefox user. It was fast enough, and Firebug was the ultimate tool for developing WWW pages. But Chrome's Developer Tools have evolved to the point I am quite happy with them. And Fierbug over the years has simply stopped working or stopped working right after browser or plugin updates. When Firebug stops working, so do I.

    Chrome and Safari are blazingly fast browsers. This was obvious to me from the first time I tried them.

    Chrome integrates with Google quite nicely. Since Google controls the browser and their services, they can build in features to enhance user experience. For example, you can "log in" with Chrome and all your bookmarks are shared across all the machines you have. That Google is a search engine and you can type in search terms in the address bar is pretty clever and an integration.

    Safari has been behind Chrome in terms of innovation and features. It's only a recent Safari feature that you can simply start typing a search query in the address bar like you always could with Chrome. The latest Safari not only has the iCloud login that shares bookmarks across your machines, it also has the ability for you to see from your laptop which tabs you have open on your desktop's browser - a feature I find extremely useful. Heck, I'm seeing from my desktop the pages open in my iPhone safari browser.

    And this looks awesome:

    Thanks for the response Denny. I've been using Chrome for the last few days and you're right, it is noticeably faster than Firefox. I was also having a lot of problems with FF crashing for no reason. Haven't noticed any problems like that with Chrome. So I guess I was just way behind the curve on this one.

    check your PM's, HAAK. I wrote a big long post of ideas/suggestions, but it's probably less appropriate for public stuff so I'm sending it directly.

    See attached.

    In chrome dev tools, I have cache disabled.

    At the top of your page, you have elements on top of your navigation.

    It looks like flash or some other image carousel/gallery is being reduced to about 50 pixels tall below that.

    ...very interesting, I can't seem to reproduce this at all so that I can see the same code bugs. I will keep combing through the CSS / responsive layouts for possible solutions to this dilemma. Again, thank you for the invaluable feedback -- much appreciated!

    It doesn't matter how wide my browser.

    If I resize the browser, the rendering is fixed though. Maybe that's a clue.

    Looks good.

    The only thing, and this is totally nitpicking, I think could be changed: under "web design" and "marketing" the rollover highlighting on the large tables is pretty distracting. It might not be so bad if it wasn't such a drastic color change. Also, when you roll out of the table, the highlight reverts back to the first column, and for some reason, that seems wrong.

    You should have a testimonial video with me giving you props on how professional you were designing my gangs website.

    ...haha, I am sure you've made it to at least one payment threshold! I just made it to my first one this past week. $120 in about 4 months.
