browsershots.org - Test your site in a variety of browsers on Win, Mac, and Linux

A client needed some help with a display issue on Safari / Mac. Browsercam is a good solution and is reasonably priced, but for this simple issue I just needed to see the site in Safari / Mac and make sure I hadn't affected IE6 as well.

Browsershots is free and has a huge variety of browsers on the three major platforms. The turnaround can be pretty slow (2 1/2 hours in my case) so sure you set the "Maximum wait" to 4 hours.

With a free, easy to use service like this, there's no excuse not to expand your browser testing a bit.

Do your best to use www.browsercam.com as not only can you set it to run batch jobs for screenshots (which are usually all complete within 10 minutes...and mostly complete in 1), but for tricky stuff, you can VNC in to your machine/OS of choice. The bad news is the pricing: http://www.browsercam.com/Pricing.aspx. The good news is that if you're a one-person show, you can get in on a group purchase at http://www.fundable.org/browsercam for only $25/year (standard) or $40/year (premium). Usually one or two come up every month. I've been in on one for almost a year now and have been nothing but pleased. To make it easy to sign up in the first place, I just set my reader for the following feed: https://www.fundable.org/search_rss?SearchableText=browsercam&review_state=public&review_state=private&review_state=finished-approved&x=11&y=13 Sweet.

Better still: I used http://www.fundable.org to order a Browsercam Premium Group account; can't beat the value for that one !

Nice story as for me. It would be great to read something more concerning this matter. The only thing I would like to see on that blog is a few pictures of any gizmos.
