I've read over and over again that if you are not using SASS or LESS, you should be. There is certainly no argument there! What could possibly be better than Dynamic Stylesheets? I think the biggest reasons for CSS designers to avoid the change is simply comfort in what they know. SASS or LESS requires a bit of a difference in your workflow - but believe me, it is only for the better. 

About a year ago, I made a post about using jScrollPane for customizing scrollbars with CSS. Recently I did a project that required this feature to be implemented in various ways. One of these implementations required these custom scrollbars to be applied within Tabbed content.

Recently I started setting my websites up with this symlink structure that I absolutely love. This setup allows me to quickly switch between versions of Drupal, so when there is an update, I could quickly revert to the previous install if something breaks horribly.

Shadowbox is a media viewer that prides itself on being standards compliant, flexible, and easy to use. In most of my exploration of different pop-up style media viewers, it seems that I would have to agree with their stand and say that at this point, Shadowbox is probably my favorite.

Galleries have always been an interesting subject in the world of Drupal. Many people have their own ideas of what makes a gallery as well as how it is supposed to work. In order to be successful with online galleries, you must have control of what you are doing.

I've spent a lot of time looking over various grid systems. I must stay that 960 is the one I tend to use the most, I think it seems to be more main-stream. However, I do often consider other systems when I'm at the early design phase of my work. I wanted to do a post that was a comparison on the CSS Frameworks, but realized that there was already a good resource out there, so I might as well just link to that.

I forgot where I got the suggestion for this book, but I added it to a Christmas list somewhere and behold! It was quite a surprise to get this for Christmas because most of my family does not understand what I do, much less understand what tech books I would actually read and use.
