Perfect Full Page Background Image Learn Development at Frontend Masters This post was originally published on August 21, 2009 and is now updated as it has been entirely revised. Both original methods are removed and now replaced by four new methods. The goal here is a background image on a website that covers the entire browser window at all times. Let’s put some specifics on it: Fills entire page with image, no white spaceScales image as neededRetains image proportions (aspect ratio)Image is centered on pageDoes not cause scrollbarsAs cross-browser compatible as possibleIsn’t some fancy shenanigans like Flash Image above credited to this site. Awesome, Easy, Progressive CSS3 Way We can do this purely through CSS thanks to the background-size property now in CSS3. Works in: Safari 3+Chrome Whatever+IE 9+Opera 10+ (Opera 9.5 supported background-size but not the keywords)Firefox 3.6+ (Firefox 4 supports non-vendor prefixed version) View Demo CSS-Only Technique #1 Big thanks, as usual, to Doug Neiner for this alternate version.
Quick Tip: You Need to Check out LESS.js You might be familiar with such services as LESS and Sass. They allow for far more flexibility when creating your stylesheets, including the use of variables, operators, mix-ins, even nested selectors. However, because LESS was originally built with Ruby, a lot of PHP developers, despite the fact that there are PHP versions available, never used it. Full Screencast Step 1. Step 2. Note that we've set the rel attribute to "stylesheet/less" and that our actual stylesheets has an extension of .less, not .css. Step 3. With this minimal amount of work, you now have access to everything from variables to mix-ins. It's important to remember that LESS.js isn't finished; hopefully, it will be soon.
Rally Interactive Big Picture - by Paul Hawken - PAN Swiss You are going to have to figure out what it means to be a human being on earth at a time when every living system is declining, and the rate of decline is accelerating. Kind of a mind-boggling situation… but not one peer-reviewed paper published in the last thirty years can refute that. Basically, civilization needs a new operating system, and you are the programmers. And we need it soon. This planet came with a set of instructions, but we seem to have misplaced them. Important rules like don't poison the water, soil, or air, don't let the earth get overcrowded, and don't touch the thermostat have been broken. There is invisible writing on the back of the diploma you will receive, and in case you didn't bring lemon juice to decode it, I can tell you what it says: You are Brilliant, and the Earth is Hiring. It sent you rain, sunsets, ripe cherries, night blooming jasmine, and that unbelievably cute person you are dating. Humanity is coalescing. You join a multitude of caring people.
2012 New Year’s Resolutions | iTibz I didn’t really celebrate this year, just like I ended up not celebrating Christmas. It was too soon after being back from San Francisco. I wasn’t in the Christmas spirit, nor in an holidays-and-end-of-the-year mood. And well I also happened to be sick between the 23rd and the 25th of December. But 2012 has come, and with it a lot more hopes and expectations. So for now, all I want is to learn, improve, and prepare the future as much as I can. Setting up realistic goals that I WILL be able to fulfill. The second part of this is to be able to program/code/develop, either websites or apps (if possible) so that I an as autonomous and independent as possible when I decide to launch my projects. So here’s how I will plan to do this: First of all, I’ll try to read and consume more information regarding design, either design of objects and homes, or visual arts and websites. The second is called TreeHouse and seems to have much more to learn than Code Academy. What do you think?
