Now i know this is a forum about game technical issues, but didnt know where else to post this, and also wanted to see if anyone else has the problem before submiting a ticket to NCSoft support...

I am using Ubuntu 7.04 and Firefox 2.0.0.6 with the Adobe Flash 9 plugin for Linux and the site looks like this:

The homepage looks OK.
Other sites that heavily rely on flash work fine (like youtube.com).

This is my about:plugins page :P

So, anyone else happen to be using linux? :)

Yup, happens to me all the time. Exact same setup (well, almost, I use Kubuntu) and the pictures have the exact same problem - the z-axis is somehow messed up.
I've tried investigating why this happens but didn't come to any conclusions. Finally I just blocked the flash objects with Adblock Plus ;D

The main GW site's use of Flash is pretty annoying even on Windows - I see they got rid of most of the animation the site used to have but the Flash cancer still occasionally manages to cause near-100% CPU usage on Firefox in Windows, making a nice computer sluggish just because some "web designer" thought it'd look cool (or was told by marketing to do it) keeping my visits to the site very brief.

The Flash content doesn't even accomplish anything you couldn't do with some competent use of XHTML and Javascript.
