[thelist] site check please! amc3

[Barney Carroll]

Thanks all for the comments - cross browser issues and readability
insights particularly useful.

The IE stuff is a bit scary. Had a bit of time on a Win machine over
the weekend and noticed a JS bug occurs within jQuery during
inter-gallery navigation which is horrifying. will have to think of a
workaround unless a solution comes about...
