Does anyone else see anything wrong with this image?

It's on the main page of Apple's site.

The bottom of the image is all messed up... it looks like they removed the background of the top 95%, but something went wrong...

I'm not seeing whatever you're seeing, so it can't be that bad.


How long before I get Baninated?
Soon. Very Soon.

Perhaps I'm the only one seeing this? Could it be that Safari is messed up?

Yeah, you're the only one that sees that. The one on Apple's site looks normal.

There's an arrow next to the Party Mix playlist and no eject icon for the iPod?

No, you're not crazy. I saw the same thing a few days ago. Not sure what that was, but I know I saw it.

Not anymore though.
We need less Democrats and Republicans, and more people that think for themselves.

I'm seeing that glitch, too, in any browser i try.

If some people are actually not seeing it, then my guess is that there was a glitch when mirroring it to Akamai that only affects some Akamai servers.

Interesting... I'm not even sure how a glitch like that would get in the system... Oh well, not a big deal... I just found it interesting that it was there...

It's not a big deal... I'm just pointing it out. Apple's web site is usually an example of near perfect web design especially in consistency and creativity...

It appears to be downloading, but there's nothing on that page that can be downloading. Or can you surf the store during a download?

Anyway, I'm not getting that weird glitch.

I thought you were referring the the promo for Walt Disney records in the upper right corner. I'm not seeing the graphic glitch anymore in Safari under 10.3, so maybe someone got on it.
