A New Look

I’ve decided to redesign yet again, I just changed the color scheme right now and will be rolling out new features once I get them in line. Not going to lie, this post is to test if this blog can post to twitter using OAuth.

Pure CSS Icons: Make The Madness Stop

A great and valid argument against using experimental CSS.

During the design phase, being able to tweak the pixel look and dimensions of an icon should be as simple as possible; adjusting many lines of CSS code to do this is not it, especially if you didn’t write the CSS originally. You want that icon a little bigger? Tough luck, it was created by someone else at 32 by 32 pixels, now it’s up to you to figure out how to make it all work for 36 by 36. Similarly, implementing an icon should be as simple as writing a CSS background property or adding an <img alt=”" /> tag. It shouldn’t involve adding six meaningless HTML elements nor twenty lines of CSS per icon.
