Accidentally made the thread with no content, sorry about that (everyone).

Seriously, check that shit out. It's by far the most complete framework for HTML layouts I've seen. Not to mention it's really easy to build wireframes as well: http://foundation.zurb.com/prototyping.php

Is there any way to move between tabs easily in Sublime? It's incredibly annoying to have to grab a mouse to switch to another file when many other text editors allow you to press CTRL + 1-9. I use TextMate on my desktop, but I need Sublime for my school laptop.

[Jelly]

What are you talking about? Sublime Text lets you move between tabs using CTRL + 1-9. Are you using the beta?

I'm working on a website without actually one goal. Its just a fun project for me.
Therefore Im only supporting Webkit browsers for now.. Other browser support might come in the future.

I think you should use a font size of 13 and a line height of 150%.

Alternatively, a font size of 16px could do but that would give you consistency issues with the rest of the page's sizing unless you change that aswell

I'm moving in the wrong direction here, so I stopped, and couldn't figure out how to lay out the bottom of my site. I need to take a step back and figure out what all I want to present, and what has importance over what, but I wanted to show what I have so far. Kinda a sneak peak before Saturday's hangout.

You can do dropdown menu's with CSS you know.

Use a texture like this one http://gumptiondesign.com. I think it'll work better.

Btw, that's a shameless plug for my site. I've got to redo the text on the bottlecap though as it somehow got stretched as you can see.

What should I do about IE 6 and IE 7? Go out of my way to support them or not?

Also what if the site is functional but looks awful on those two browsers, is that acceptable? I ask because it's pretty hard to support old browsers when writing html5 markup and using css3

Ignore them, people who refuse to upgrade don't deserve (nor care enough about) a full web experience.

It's not so hard to support IE6 & 7. Just use the condition comments to add ie tags to your body element then you can target each browser in your CSS.

Really it depends on your content.

You should fairly easily be able to provide basic functionality to older browsers, it doesn't matter so much how bad it looks. How many of your users actually use those browsers?

Just don't use text-shadows to show white text on a white background. The older browsers should look bad...

My problem was with rgba and IE7 shitting itself while interpreting it (even if I had a HEX fallback) and rendering white. Anyway, I've resorted to using HEX only.

Use

.whatever {
background: rgb();
background: rgba();
}

Newer browsers will pick up the rgba, older ones will ignore it and render the previous attribute.

Oh I thought you were saying I stole the design
I was ready to fight to the death to defend my honor..

Will try that, thanks.
I never think much about line height, I should probably start now.

‎Just went through Hetzner's traffic: 392,835 GB of data transferred via Fanatical servers so far this year <- that's crazy!?!

On the IE stuff: don't let IE stop you using certain css rules/etc, just make sure users know if their browser is out-of-date.

How come sometimes designing something in the browser yields awesome results while if you try to design it outside you'll end up depressed and with a shitty design?

I usually choose them based on my mood at the time. As for the practical side, I just use a simple color picker.

I decided to change the color scheme at the last minute.

[miceiken]

I'm working on a little project but I can never get the effects and colors right. I want to emboss/imprint the boxes where the pictures are, but I realize that will be hard with the white background?


Also one with the menu item hover effect


I never really got Adobe's Kuler to give me any good palettes either.

Well if you used YUI compressor it converts all other colour modes into HEX so could still use your preferred method.

Edited:

Hmmm, actually it wouldn't convert rgba because that's alpha as well I guess. Never mind then.
