I really like your site... great choice of colors. I also like your fav icon. Here is my site what do you think?

Hi,

It looks like IE supports gradients only from IE10 and above: http://caniuse.com/#feat=css-gradients

Which version did you try in? For the older versions, you should include a fallback background, like this:

.element {
  background: grey; /* For older browsers like IE9 and below */
  background: linear-gradient(black, white);
}

For the favicons, I'd suggest to delete the cache in all your browsers.

Hope I could help. Good luck!

That's weird. Sorry, I can't help you more. You will need a bit more advanced person for this.
