Making Your CSS Stylesheet Coding “Bear-able”

Normally a web design project goes hand-in-hand between your HTML and CSS.

Your HTML markup and CSS go back and forth as you work up your design.

Not anymore!

Bear CSS is an awesome, free online tool that will turn your design process on its head … in a good way ;-)

Here’s how it works:

How-To Create Emboss, Pressed & Glossy Images Using CSS3

Creating image effects using CSS3 gives your web design a lot of flexibility and can save you a lot of time.

Imagine using the same photo effect on every photo and image you use, only to have them look butt-ugly when you try to modify your theme later down the road. Not only that, but having to add photo effects to all your images can be very time consuming.

Using CSS3 to create these basic design effects is certainly the way to go.

Here’s how:

Control When Your WordPress Posts are Available via RSS

Don’t you hate it when there’s an error in your blog post or you mistakenly click “Publish” before you’re finished?

You quickly jump back into your admin to make the changes or revert to “Save Draft,” and although it’s been changed on your blog, the erroneous blog post has already been sent to your RSS feed.

Sad panda :-(

Here’s a little WordPress snippet that can give you a little breathing room between your published post and your updated RSS feed:

Past & Future WordPress Posts

Did you know that WordPress can display posts you have scheduled?

How awesome is that!

This would not only be cool for a band website that lists upcoming shows or events, but it would be great for bloggers who plan out and schedule blog posts ahead of time. What a great hook for returning blog readers to subscribe to your feed or come back, so they don’t miss one of your upcoming awesome blog posts.

Here’s how to do it:

Simple HTML5/CSS3 Template

HTML5 reset

HTML5 and CSS3 are new and exciting and has lead to a number of solid templates to get started on web projects.

Here’s a new (that’s relative, isn’t it?) template worth taking a good look at:

HTML5 Reset

Now that modern browsers are starting to support some of the really useful parts of HTML5 and CSS3, it’s time for our best practices to catch up, and we thought we’d put our files out there for everyone to use. By no means do we see this as the One True Way to start every project, but we think it’s a good starting place that anyone can make their own.

Some of the boilerplates that exist are on the heavy side, so if you’re looking for a nice, simple alternative, than this is what you’re looking for. Plus, they have a little something for those developing on WordPress, too!

Make Any Webpage Look Like It’s from 1996

It’s called, “The Geocities-izer,” and it can make any webpage look like it was made by a 13 year-old in 1996.

You know, back when websites were built “the old fashioned way” with Notepad? When counters were cool and Netscape was the best browser?

Cut the Rope: Brought to You by HTML5 & CSS3

cut the rope zeptolab

Cut the Rope is a game app for your iPhone, iPad and Android phone or tablet, but you can also play it online — for free!

It falls under the class of Angry Birds with  its cute cartoon look and feel, and centers around motion physics and cause-and-effect. Like other casual games of this nature, it’s stupidly addicting.

The coolest aspect of Cute the Rope is the development, since the web browser version of the game is an authentic translation of the mobile apps, showcasing some of the best of what HTML5 has to offer: canvas-rendered graphics, browser-based audio and video, CSS3 styling and the personality of WOFF fonts.
