http://sixrevisions.com – If you’re building a website for a client or yourself that requires a number of images to be presented in a gallery format — for example, if you’re a web designer, photographer, sculptor, painter or graphic designer — Drupal has some out-of-the-box solutions to help you organize and present your information. Professionals who work on a visual medium often need help presenting (and possibly monetizing) their work, and an online gallery is a great way to do this.

http://sixrevisions.com – During the browser wars, interesting problems presented themselves to the web design community. Many web professionals resorted to drastic measures and built separate websites for IE and Netscape — and later we had wireless markup language (WML) for mobile phones. This was because of inconsistent rendering and poorly implemented standards, and it was a means of avoiding the ugly hacking that was otherwise necessary. This practice has evolved over the years (take print-friendly pages, for example), but the modern web almost shuns the practice entirely.
