Would Geekzone please consider changing its TweetMeme button to an official Twitter "Tweet" button. You will get more control of what it tweets and Twitter will recommend to the user to follow the Geekzone account.

And FYI the current Tweet button makes the bottom bar thicker than it should be:

We are using our own bit.ly pro account with our Twettmeme button, and until the official Twitter button actually supports any other URL shortner than we will hold the change.

Ok, I can see why.
But can you fix the issue that I describe on my fist post (I edited it)?

Yes, will look into it. The button is also transparent - except on IE...

It is in your screenshot? This is what it looks like on IE... See the difference?
