I feel like I'm getting more and more adept at CSS as I play with my Aquaman Website. Every day I seem to learn at least one new aspect, and it's now to the point that I actually understand what I'm doing most of the time, and why it should work. Admittedly, I still don't understand a few things... but I'm getting closer.
Here are a few of the sites that have helped me out so far:
- Converting Existing Content to Style Sheets - a good primer for absolute beginners.
- NYPL Style Guide - Why converting to XHTML and CSS is a good idea.
- W3Schools Tutorials - Lots of great detail on every aspect of CSS and XHTML.
- Complete CSS Guide - Anything that I don't understand the W3Schools explanation is usually explained here so I can get it.
- Guide to Cascading Style Sheets - Another decent set of guides.
- Cascading Style Cheatsheet - This page actually explains stuff that nobody else does.
- Ten CSS Tricks You May Not Know - I can't use most of these yet, but I'm beginning to understand them, and they look like fun.
Now I am getting a little sick of working on the Aquaman site, just because there are limits to what I'm willing to change at the moment, so I looked at the template for this blog and was stunned at how incredibly ugly and messed up it is. I shouldn't be stunned, but I am. It's just so much garbage. I suddenly have another project, cleaning up my main blog template.
So if the blog looks really funny over the next couple of weeks, you know why.
