Eh, if there is one thing I know about Radiohead is that they are always up to some hi-jinks or shenanigans.

Anyone got a download link to the huge bitmap (the 4.84 MB one)?

Works fine for me, though whoever exported that image fails.

I think I've found your problem PrimalBeans:


In a real browser, the image loads. (Link doesn't load in IE for me either)

works on IE9

If pots and pans were "if"s and "and"s there would be no work for programmer's hands...

Weird, doesn't work in IE6 either. How bizarre. Although, any website I view, even attempting that image, IE gives me a JS error; JSON is undefined.

Ive been meaning to get fire fox... but im waiting for my new machine to arrive. I waited today for pos ups to deliver for the second time for two hours while i was on an (extended) lunch break at work and they never showed. I figure that ill get that machine set up with all the goodies but if i have to wait any longer i might have to just do it tonight anyway. For one reason or another ups here is a bunch of knuckle heads. (sorry if any of you work for ups in the gainsville area of florida.)

Forget FF, it's slow and sluggish, get Chrome.

I had UPS leave a note on my door saying they attempted to deliver 3 times and now it'll be waiting at the warehouse for me to pickup, on the other side of town. What's annoying is that this was the first notice I received from them, and the time stamp obviously lies or they didn't even try bringing it up to my door. I was sitting on the couch downstairs with my front door open, nobody ever knocked.

I can't use IE9 on account of a strange glitch that actually causes GTAIV (Steam version) not to run if you have it installed.

I still have no idea why IE9 would cause this, but un-installing IE9 fixed the problem (as it has done for many other people)
