Because:
- Less work if someone decides to update.
- More compatible with various functions of EoFF. An example being the animated favicon.
- You'll be making moneys.
- More security for EoFF'ers. Even if it doesn't help EoFF directly I'm sure you care about our security, right?
- I'm gonna go outside my dominion of knowledge and claim that it'll reduce the server load by speeding up how fast people download.
- It'll make you guys cash.
- You'd be helping out the entire web altogether and helping to end Microsoft's monopoly.
- Google would be paying you.
Pretty pathetic list, I know. But if you dignify that everyone should be using Firefox then getting paid to have people get it is pretty much awesome. All the cool kids are doing it. Even the Google start page in IE has an ad for Firefox.
Does Eyeson do this? I guess you're not the person to ask.
The reasons listed imply this is probably something only Sean could decide on. Anyway, I don't see it as such a big deal.

Silly Tony, not using firefox makes the png signatures look all funky. And that's like... a tragedy.
For those of you using Windows that have the lame excuse that it's not your computer/you're not allowed to install software because someone else said so/blah blah blah:
Introducing:
<b>Portable Firefox</b>
It doesn't "install" like normal software, just unpacks itself somewhere (probably somewhere you can hide it) and you can run it
Usually better for portable devices, but I find it's just as great on machines you're not able to install on because you're not admin, such as at work
Not to be a jackass, but I'm pretty sure that Google already pays El Presidente Cid. :|
Sorry, played Symphonia recently. I still agree that Firefox is the way to go, but I'm not going to tell anyone that in such a heavy-handed way.
P.S. - Opera sucks.
No. Eyeson and these forums crap in the face of standards. We blame IE and there DAMN FRONTPAGE!Does Eyeson do this?
Seriosuly, the people whom make vbulliten have no respect for the standards. I, in turn, have little respect for thier coding aptitude. Its ignorance and stupidity on thier part. Its like the one guy in a project whom wants to do things HIS way, so he ditches and tangeble standards and does so - not caring about anything outside of his narrow little scope.
Why is this? Use XHTML 1.1 Strict with CSS 2.0. The page will look cleaner and will work on any compliant browser, palm pilot, even the handycaped fans of final fantasy would be able to visit these forums without a hitch. There is a reason the languages and specifications for the nets programmers have changed, because the mediums and surfers have changed over the past 6 years. [there are about 5 other benefits I could list off but for sake of time, I will shut up]
There ya have it - not making the page as handicap excessable as it can be alone is the immoral and corupt. Little Timmy smite you all!
[edit] Cough* oh yeah, so I don't see the browsers and playing a part in the war. As long as people obey standards and test thier pages with Firefox or Amaya, IE will shoot itself in the foot, and the peasents will rejoice!

Oh, sorry. I didn't realize Cid didn't want any more Cash. I guess I'll stop clicking the ads now.Not to be a jackass, but I'm pretty sure that Google already pays El Presidente Cid.
