  I suppose that you mean:

http://mozilla.org/releases/

  Why use an older version when a newer is available?

And, of course, if you hover over the image, a graphic pops up that allows you
to toggle between screen size/image size.

Actually, I quite like this option - I could do with an easier universal toggle
and some sort of indicator that resizing has taken place, but whenever I've
turned it off completely, I pretty soon end up turning it back on again.

  It sort of grew on me, and now I like it, too. I regularly download
larger-than-my-browser window images from my favorite WRC site. It's
nice not to have to scroll the window to see the rest of the images.

I hope that playing with new official people don't forget to participate in
voting. What is the current status of it ?

simplified to Wlodzimierz (the second letter is stroked L). I hope that when
registered www.povray.org users would have posting feature then it should fix
my language caprice.

I had been wondering what the little superscript '3' meant :)
Now how do you pronounce this this?

    Just like it's spelled. With difficulty.

    Vladimir with a Russian accent?

  This means that you are using the ISO-8859-1 charset (aka. ISO-Latin-1),
which is the most common charset.
  If you are going to use characters with values >127, you'll better use
the Latin-1 charset or just transliterate to ASCII, or else most people in
the world will see the wrong characters (as happened in this case). You just
can't assume that everyone in the world uses the same charset as you
(you can more or less assume this for the Latin-1 charset, even though not
*everyone* uses it, but most people by default).

  (Of course this depends a lot where you are. In Japan the most common
charsets are Shift JIS and EUC JP.)

  In webpages the situation is better because you can tell the charset to
use in the headers of the page (and then it's only up to the viewer to have
the proper browser support and font to view it).
