"Do you really think we'll get enough lift to break earth's gravity?"

I'm oak

I'm a web designer with Fighting Irish Digital Media, part of Notre Dame Athletics.

If you're interested in seeing what I can do, you can check out my portfolio here.

I'm making a couple of changes to this site. Because I am a designer, and not naturally adept at coding, I'm doing it gradually. Thanks for your patience. In the mean time, here is a picture of a photobombing seal.

Seriously? You couldn’t think of a more subtle way to point this out?
I’m browsing the internet using IE6. I’m self-concious enough about this already. It’s like every website is judging me, laughing at the guy who can’t even open a new tab. Tumblr, is it necessary to rub it in?
Edit: IE6 is not my standard browser, nor was I using a computer I had the ability to install a new browser on. (What does it say about IE6 that it feels necessary to be defensive about this?)

I have to use IE6 at work (although only for work-related internetting.) I don’t defend the practice though. Good for tumblr for encouraging people to use something freaking else.

If you understand why this message is in place, even if you’re using IE6, the message isn’t intended for you. At least you’re aware. Way too many people still are not.
