The site I've been working on is getting close to completion, huzzah! I'm having loads more success with Zoundation; thanks very much to the funny monkeys et al.

Short of buying most of my co-workers a MacBookAir, how would you approach the discrepancies between the two screen captures shown? For example, the graphics missing from MSIE8 are all SVGs.

Would you toss an alternative theme at the MSIE 8 crowd?
Would you add modernizr tests?
Or is there a better approach that hasn't occured to me?

TIA

I am using the html5 starter theme but I don't understand why the doc type isn't actually the HTML5 doctype.

If I go though and find the file for the header in the Alpha folder, can I change the doctype with out breaking the alpha and omega layers of this theme? It just doesn't make sense to me to use the HTML5 theme when the doctype isn't even recognizing that you are using HTML5.
