Re:Popular Websites Displayed in IE 5 on Tuesday April 30, 2013 @12:46AM (#5630465)
All 5 pages render fine on IE 5 (I cannot read the text though). Only baidu gives me a JS error message, but seems to work regardless...

This would be fun, I'll try to get Netscape Navigator 4.5 and AOL Explorer 1.? running...

There is no coming back your employees will leave promptly.
You're right, I've added both to our bug list. Thanks for pointing that out!
I've added this to the to-do list...
It runs a full blown browser in the background so it should handle most things you can throw at it.
Thanks for pointing that out! I'll look into that!
Oh quite different: Mostly it's used to create images inside reports or to display thumbnails for the user.

The Full-Page Screenshots is the main selling point at the moment...

Yes it uses webkit, and regarding reliability... It currently runs smoothly despite the hacker news traffic increase ;-)
You can specify the viewport size. For example the smashing magazine using 1024x768 viewport: http://www.url2picture.com/Picture/Png/?apikey=6101EE5C99B14...

And using 400x400 viewport: http://www.url2picture.com/Picture/Png/?apikey=6101EE5C99B14...

Thats a great project, but I would need to host it myself somewhere?
Yes it does. See this example of the nytimes: http://url2picture.com/Picture/Png/?apikey=6101EE5C99B145ECB...

Of course there are limits to this as some websites have "endless" scrolling (like pintrest)

Sure you could, but then why would one go through all the hassle just to get a (probably already cached) screenshot?
What exactly do you mean?
