[Burningbird] Shock, Awe, Economics, and the Web | Burningbird: While it is true that text-shadow, box-shadow, and border-radius are CSS3 properties, and thus not part of a released specification, they are supported in Safari 3.1 (and Firefox 3.1 and partially in Opera 9.x).

[Flickr forum] Flickr: The Help Forum: Poor Uploading Quality - example inside: To go around this, make sure whatever program you use saves the photos in sRGB instead of the default colorspace that the program uses (I forget offhand what it is).
