Theme Design from scratch? OK. But 1st Define: "Scratch"
I see your point and it is valid. I had to learn the code before I was able to do my own things with it, and now I have a "scratch" theme myself. But designing a theme from scratch isn't that far fetched. Read the Wordpress Codex, t…

Design critique - all input welcome
Correct, the same thing with the social media icons. If I (visitor) am interested, I would click on the article. This gives you the benefit of a higher pages per visit ratio because really, why would I visit the site further if all the buttons are t…

Design critique - all input welcome
Here we go. The header. I like it. Menu is good. Dislike the how there is little breathing room at the right though (Home, About Us, etc). Perhaps the color needs to change and that gradient is a bit too strong. The left bar: Dislike. The fonts, c…

Is Dreamweaver redundant?
It is, as others have stated, a matter of preference. I use Coda.

Putting IE-specific CSS on the main stylesheet using HTML conditional comments
I use Paul Irish' approach. I don't know if it's the same as the Boilerplate, but I recommend it.

Wordpress vs Drupal
Wordpress by far. Reasons: 1) When I see sites I love, for inspiration, they are almost all made on Wordpress 2) I think Joomla and Drupal are too "squared". You have to add menu's and modules and what not to home pages. With wordpr…

HTML5, PHP and CSS ...
I do mockups on paper first before I design the actual thing on Photoshop. There is a lot of debate as to whether one should start with HTML/CSS right away, but prefer not to. I can make changes easily.

Targeting a parent
Hello Stand. The problem with your proposed solution is that it over the DIV, yeah, but the button stays the same color. The objective is that when the button is hovered, the entire DIV's border changes colors. I did achieve it using jQuery l…

Targeting a parent
That's a bummer eh? I think that parent to child is great, but the opposite should also hold true.

Wordpress - Broken Images
Yeah, it's best if you post thumbnails if it isn't already being used or get a multiple post thumbnails plug in. This way they just upload the image and its inserted.

How to test and preview on wordpress
You can also do a folder instead of a subdomain. Make sure when you install wordpress that nothing of it is indexed by search engines.

Feedback On My New Site Launch
I think it's good but there is an underlying problem of trying to go back. I had to search for a while and look where can I go BACK to the home page.

Website Design Advice
What johnnyb said. A possible solution towards this would be to change the color of the header to be greenish, redish, etc, just as an indicator that I am indeed on a new page of the site. I think your issue (back to your original question) stems …

HTML5 Tags
@TheDoc it may be not semantic to you as a human, but to bots and spiders, oh it is. You are basically laying out how your content is structured on your page and giving priority to parts of the content you need to. Using a UL with an id or class doe…

Layout feedback
Abz, Once it loads it will load fine and reasonably, I am guessing it's due to some caching of the assets. Or it might be because of your friends connection, it could be a very good broadband connection but not everybody has it. Get Google Pa…

Combatting Hackers, Help!
First off, are you using ADMIN as the admin user? You ought to use something different. I usually change it PER client. Second, are you using strong passwords, even for your clients? It's a must. The third thing you can do is password protect…

Layout feedback
Your #1 issue is speed. I have typed all of this after waiting 20 seconds and still no pictures. Edit: I just did a Page Speed score and you scored 3/100. That's pretty damn bad dude. To me 90+ is a must. A site cannot weigh more than download…

PORTFOLIO FEEDBACK
The menu falls apart. Its width is way too big for it to behave properly horizontally. You will have to narrow the width down a bit. Edit: Also, the text to the right, try to push it up, its not aligning properly to the image to the left, looks ver…

Come on, that CSS3 stuff is mostly made out of vendor prefixes, I don't know what's the point of validating CSS if they aren't recognized.

Best way to go about learning web design for reals
Would start with books. To me books lay the solid foundations that you later get via articles, forums and communities. But you need to get the solid foundations of how it works. Animations, Webkit, etc come later. You first need to be able to "…

A (productive) rant on learning web design. Please tolerate, you vets will at least get a laugh.
Books. All I can say. Read them, understand them and then go with the sites you like. I started with books, I think they are the basic foundations and all the information is in there to get you started. Sure there are TONS of site, but that's …

Would jQuery over ride CSS?
If it's an absolute must for you, do it like Paulie suggest, include the JS within the conditional statement. I do this for some styling stuff I do (mostly n-odd and n-even markup). To me this isn't critical and as such, it can stay as i…

Portfolio/CV critique
It's not bad. One fault you are making though, is that the image is too large and you are squeezing it within it's dimensions as opposed to crop it to the actual dimensions instead. http://thelordraimonds.info/images/profile.jpg I have t…
