Orbital Content. We are on the cusp of a complete overhaul of the way in which we interact with online content, and I think you should be a hell of a lot more excited than you currently are. Bookmarklet apps like Instapaper, Svpply, and Readability are pointing us toward a future in which content is no longer entrenched in websites, but floats in orbit around users. This transformation of our relationship with content will force us to rethink existing reputation, distribution, and monetization models—and all for the better. Content today#section1 Most online content today is stuck. It has roots firmly planted in one of the many sites and applications around the web.

Because content is rooted, we are forced to spend precious time recording its location in the hopes of navigating back. We bookmark websites. In this system, the sites are the gravitational center and we, the users, orbit them, reaching out for a connection whenever we want to interact with the content. Content shifting#section2.

Jenn $chiffer. Form elements in older browsers. This page contains screenshots of form elements modified by CSS in older browsers. It is noteworthy to draw attention to elements in browser Safari 3 and Opera 9. Safari 3 for Windows used design typical for Apple, Safari version 4 takes over the appearance of the Windows motive. So we losed possibility to enjoy the taste of apple in Windows, sorry. Similarly, Opera left off probably the most elegant form elements and from version 10 takes elements of the operating system. Only screenshots of older form elements and short comments are listed here.

Element <input type="text"> The first row of screenshots shows the size of the element specified by attribute size = "7" and blank space around the element.

Bienvenue chez vous ! C’est le bazar, n’est-ce pas, dans votre code CSS ?

Le CSS ? C’est une vraie galère dès qu’on doit y revenir, dès qu’on repasse derrière quelqu’un d’autre et même quand on doit replonger dans son propre code après longtemps... et ce n’est vraiment pas aisé de coder à plusieurs mains, en équipe. Mais comment diable s’y prend-on ? Voulez-vous vraiment continuer à coder chaque projet à partir de zéro ? Beaucoup se demandent alors s’il ne vaut pas mieux adopter un « framework CSS ». Mais c’est quoi, concrètement, un framework CSS ? Cependant ils restent peu utilisés : il semble que guère plus de 40 % des projets soient développés à l’aide d’un framework CSS [1]. Je vous propose plus simple : exploiter l’existant ! Prenons par exemple, l’une de ces feuilles de style longue comme le bras. Prenons maintenant un nouveau projet de site web. Je n’ai pas encore évoqué une chose pourtant importante...

Advertisement Thanks to the skyrocketing popularity of mobile devices, a new generation of designers and CMS developers has found the religion of Structured Content. Once the domain of semantic markup purists and information architects, structured content models are at the heart of most multi-channel and multi-device Web projects.

At Lullabot, we often work with media, publishing and enterprise clients. Those businesses produce so much content and manage so many publishing channels that keeping presentation and design-specific markup out of their content is an absolute requirement. This challenging requirement — providing editors and writers with more control over the presentation of their content — is where many well-intentioned content models break down. The Easy (But Problematic) Answers Sadly, a common response in projects on a deadline is to give up on well-structured, reusable content.

To avoid that chaos, some teams go to the opposite extreme. Principles That Work (al) (ea) 13 Graphic Design Blogs to Follow in 2013. Whether you’ve dreamt of becoming a successful graphic designer your whole life or you simply enjoy perusing through delightful designs, graphic design blogs are a great source of education, conversation and inspiration. Some blogs are administered by industry pros who are eager to share their knowledge and experience with others.

Some serve as a meeting place for design enthusiasts to interact and gather feedback from each other. Others exist for the sole purpose of exposing the work of designers to inspire others. So for designers of all experience levels, we compiled a list of 13 graphic design blogs you can’t afford to ignore this year. 1. Abduzeedo Why follow? While its name may be a bit complicated, its mission is simple: To be an open channel to the design community, encouraging feedback from its followers. You can also follow Adbuzeedo on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+. 2. This blog aims to provide its followers with a daily dose of design tips and inspiration. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Paul Irish. 13 Design Trends For 2013. What better way to start the year than to make predictions – some obvious, some not so obvious – as to what trends will become more widely used in the design community. Each year seems to bring new ideas to the community and once they gain enough traction, they eventually become the norm (we’re looking at you, “pull to refresh”).

In honor of the year, we have 13 design trends that we’re either hoping or expecting to see reign in throughout the year. Feel free to quote me on these in late December, as well. I won’t be offended. 1. Flat Design This seems to be the most obvious choice for upcoming trends. Windows 8 seems to have built its entirely new OS around the idea of a completely flat UI, most of which revolves around the Windows 8 UI (previously known as Metro) and Live Tiles. A more recent application that utilizes flat design is an alarm clock app that goes by the name, Rise. Flat design isn’t for every application. 2. I’ve been over this before. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.

A List Apart: For People Who Make Websites. Subtraction.com. A Dao of Web Design. What Zen was to the 70’s (most famously with motorcycle maintenance), the Tao Te Ching was to the 90’s. From Piglet and Pooh to Physics and back, many have sought sense in applying the Tao Te Ching to something (the Tao of Physics), or something to the Tao Te Ching (the Tao of Pooh). It can be a cheap trick, but lately it has struck me that there is more than a little to be understood about web design by looking through the prism of the Tao.

Article Continues Below Daoism is a philosophy, like Buddhism, a way of living, of being in the world, which stems from a text of great antiquity, the Tao Te Ching, whose 81 “chapters” enigmatically sweep across human experience, but with a strong common theme, that of harmony. For the last couple of years, for better or worse, my life has revolved more than a little around style sheets. What I sense is a real tension between the web as we know it, and the web as it would be. Same old new medium? Controlling web pages#section2 [The Sage] The Way#section5.
