Fancy Scrolling Sites In the last year or so, there's been enough sites that do fancy things when you scroll down that it's kind of a trend. I thought I'd blog it, you know, for the sake of history. By "fancy things" I mean something happens when scrolling down besides the site scrolling down. Elements might move around in unexpected ways or change their size/shape/color/content in some way. It's easier to just experience some of these yourself than listen to me try to fumble through explaining it. These screenshots also don't do much justice. So how do they do that? JavaScript. Know any others? Add them in the comments. Share On GREYSCALE The GreyscaleBasic typeface is completely free to download and use in any way for any purpose desired.

Online Shop | Shopping Cart Software | Wazala Foundry Co Don't Be Afraid of Serif Fonts As the practice of Web design ages, some common rules and "best practices" inevitably embed themselves in the craft. Among these are the processes for using specific types of semantics when coding your site, like using divs as hooks in your X/HTML for your CSS, and making your page beautiful and functional that way.

Penser la typographie en couleurs – Avant-propos Captivé par les lettres d’une part et la couleur d’autre part, c’est tout naturellement que ces deux passions se sont associées et ont mûri au fil des ans pour aboutir au mémoire ici présenté. La couleur et les lettres nous environnent au quotidien. Nous les rencontrons dès que nous ouvrons les yeux, sur l’écran de notre réveil digital tout d’abord, sur les emballages de notre paquet de café ou de notre gel douche ensuite, puis sur les enseignes des magasins et les affiches publicitaires lorsque nous nous rendons à notre travail ou en revenant à notre domicile. Ils sont encore présents sur les plans de notre quartier et les panneaux de signalétique quand nous cherchons à nous orienter, sur notre ordinateur, sur internet, etc. Et pourtant, ces deux univers semblent vouloir garder leur indépendance, sans jamais partager leurs qualités respectives.
