 ive been busy for the last week or so working on the new site design hopefully im going to launch it within the next few days maybe even tonight i would say the theme for this redesign is simplicity im no designer so i should stop pretending right a lot of good links from this week i guess once i finally finish the redesign a real article will come i promise css a recipe for success pretty good article about styling a restaurant menu as an unordered list nothing ground breaking just a good example of the powerfulness of css creating multicolumn lists again nothing ground breaking just some simple techniques for creating multi column lists my one gripe is with the 3rd example im not sure why they dont just put the class name on the ordered lists instead of wrapping them in an extra div sure its not that much extra markup graphic design glossary nice list of definitions relating to the graphic design field might be helpful to send to clients so if you mix in those technical terms they understand it collecting for design discussion about collecting ideas for interface and design solutions always good to help remember ideas from other sites the rules of unobtrusive javascript i read chris heilmanns article last week but i like rogers explanation principles of design a series of 6 articles although only 3 are written so far covering the basic principles of design what does accessibility mean accessibility is not just making your site available for those with disabilities it is making your site available for as many people as possible disabled or not email standards project i hate html emails lets hope this project can force email client developers to stick to some sort of standards not saying i will like html emails any better but coding them will become tolerable i dont know how many more crappy html emails i can stand to code ensuring your html emails look great and get delivered good article about making your html emails look good and making sure they are getting into the users inboxes doesnt remind me of anything discussing how sometimes when you are starting new and kind or stuck get away from the computer and go for a walk or something a chance of scenery sometimes can really get the brain moving
