Also 2 from our company Krehol games. Momo Alienstarcater and Raynium both from us with me being lead programmer. I also worked with sonicfire on the retrogamebox , Sonicfire was lead developer on that project though.

Sky, I still dont see the Firetop Adventure image, but now I also dont see the images for raynium , Baby Bear Pocket (Free) and Martian Breaker Lite.

This is in IE9, in other browsers (tested in Firefox) they all load fine so its probably something withe the pages markup that's not right, IE has always been more fussy than other browsers. The solution may be as simple as changing the Doctype. When checked with the WC3 validator there are some 30+ code errors on the page ( http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ... ne&group=0 ).

throw IE in the bin
there is just one reason that IE is pre-installed
it's that you are able to download firefox

Many millions of people use IE (which is actually pretty good with version 9 - and yes I've used most browsers inlucing Safari, Firefox and Opera alot). To have a web page that doesnt display properly with IE would stop many millions from viewing the page properly. Just switching browser is not the answer, markup written to current internet standards and error free is the answer.

8 was bad, very slow and bulky. 9 is completely different! We're off topic now though, main thing is that the page supports all broswers properly.

Ideally for the GE Website it'd be better that it displays properly on every browser, not promote a specific browser.

I have internet explorer 8 and Firefox 5. I checked the app store and I can see every images on both browser. Kodo, have you tried re-caching?
Note: the 3 last games about the baby thing don't exist in the app store anymore...

The page with the problem is on the GE site, nothing to do with the App Store. The images show fine in Firefox but not in IE 9. I have tried clearing out my cache but with no changes. The page does contain 30+ code errors and is not valid 'XHTML 1.0 Transitional', which is what the pages doc type is set to (you can check this yourself at http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ... ne&group=0 ) , this can cause all sorts of cross browser issues. Regardless of my problems the page shouold validate error free, so that it shows correctly in the maximum range of browsers.

my bad, I meant app store on the ge page.
Seems IE9 is misreading the type of document it's opening S:
I tried again to see if there were any errors in the page, but came out clean in IE8.
This is a bit ironic though, you'd expect it to work in IE9 and not IE8...

The errors are only visible when you check the page using the W3C Validator, not while browsing the page in a browser, it check the page you specify against current internet standards and reports errors in the pages code, the W3C validator is used by all good website design companies to ensure that the pages they create are error free and compatible with the widest range of browsers. The errors reported have nothing to do with the browser you are using to view pages, if you check the page you will also find the same errors reported. The doc type is not being misread by IE, XHTML 1.0 Transitional is what the pages source specifies.

The problem with a page that contains many errors is that content may not display properly on some browsers, which is probably why I dont see some stuff.

Well, found the problem. For some reason it won't display images that have view mode set. Should be working now. Not sure how much I can do with the main page. I'm on a school computer using ie and it doesn't have any problems (except the whole site looks bad) but the video does display. Omni-arts offered to make a new site, which knowing them would work on all major browsers, but alas nothing came of that, as makslane maintains that the main page should use the wiki format.

As for the baby pocket games, it seems he resubmitted them, so I'll have to update there links.

-Edit
Baby pocket game links have been updated.
