    @joshuanhibbert also has a love for ST2 and has been cool enough to make snippets downloadable for both CSS and HTML. May be worth looking into =)

  • Overlay image on hover?

    Could be a problem with not clearing them, or if you're adding padding it could be too large for its parent. Post a link if you can (if it's live), I could take a look for you...

  • Aligning text next to an image

    Cool, as I said you're probably better adding the clearfix though, I just quickly tested in Chrome Tools using overflow: hidden; to see if that was the problem and it was. Let's say you ever want to add some box-shadow to your grey contai…

  • Aligning text next to an image

    Add overflow: hidden; to your #post and it clears the float for you. You would obviously be better off using a clearfix...

  • Re-designing a logo/website for a client

    I will have to look into creating vector images @andy_unleash as I've never done that before. Wouldn't that have an impact on file size even when it is scaled down say for the website? I am awaiting confirmation on her budget, I will make…

  • Re-designing a logo/website for a client

    @chrisburton - it's going to be used on Business Cards and also the logo on the website. Not too big, though. The lady sent me a PDF full of ideas of other logos including her own. It involves some nice handwritten font. And I'm thinking …

  • inset shadow in ie9

    Hmm I'm not too sure about support in IE8 obviously but their could be a hack that I don't know about. Otherwise I think the only option would be to use a fallback image but that's not very clean.

  • Re-designing a logo/website for a client

    Thanks for the detailed advice guys. @David_Leitch - yeah I understand that the logo should look good in print as well as web or business card size. Does that mean I would have to make the image vector say in Photoshop? To allow for easy scaling. W…

    Yeah, maybe his Markup was incorrect somewhere or it was making IE go into a previous version of itself, we'll never know :)

  • Sticky footer being destroyed by wordpress admin bar

    Hi @damon I can understand what you mean, but does it really matter if it breaks it, as the only time that code is active is when you are logged into WordPress as an admin.

    Hi @cpyle0819 @JoniGiuro linked to this page, although it's not a interactive example, it still kind of shows you how it works without the need to download it and install it etc.

  • inset shadow in ie9

    @Vermass is basically letting you know that Internet Explorer 9 already allows an inset shadow. I think your problem might have been that you wrote your code wrong as you don't seem to end the box-shadow line in your example properly. Try thi…
