Status Updates From HTML and CSS: Design and Bu...

muy chido libro.

I've skipped tables in most of my learning so now it's time to do some real hard thinking. I'm wondering how helpful this chapter will be

Finally got past all the chapters I've already learnt and now onto images. :) can't wait to get to CSS

My newest purchase. :) this book is amazing and absolutely perfect for visual learners. No wonder the Goodreads rating is so high.

I wonder if it's a book about design or animals...

One of my christmas present... seriously... it's well presented. Not that I need help for the html part but I'm very curious about the CSS one. Sounds good so far.

Learning about sprites...

"...a student lecturer/hottie named Tony. Tony had a dirty blonde ponytail..." Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop right there.

th scope="col" or "row"

I'm totally in love with this book, I strongly recommend it for HTML and CSS knowledge seekers

So far the examples and explanations have been really clear. The visuals are a great aid to the learning process!

After seeing the preview pages on Amazon I've been wanting to get a hold of this book! I was thrilled to discover that the Seattle Public Library has the e-book version to borrow!

I'm reading this book so slowly because I'm trying to do it on days off when I have the mental capacity to absorb knowledge. The chapter on text was pretty good (though some of it I knew from college graphic design courses)

This is by far the best instructional book I have read. All instructional books should be written in this fashion.

FREAKING A I JUST CANT SPELL ACRONYMS SOMETIMES. And it took me an hour to solve that.

I have spent an hour piddling with things/changing things to try to figure out if I did something wrong with this CSS style sheet. If anyone know code and is willing to tell me why this isn't working I would love you forever. And if that doesn't work I have bribes.

GRRR. I can't figure out if I've mistyped something form the example or if the example just doesn't work. I am tugging at my hair in frustration. (A nervous habit of mine)

Next chapter is about color! *splashes you all with rainbows* CSS chapter made sense. But when I tried to put it into the HTML (internal CSS) it didn't work on my free text wrangler & I don't know why. But apparently external is a better practice anyways.

The chapter on embedding flash videos may have been a wee bit over my head (or the one part that talked about the free javascript you could get from google to run flash players). Okay thing that's all the education my brain can handle today.

Some of this stuff I've created in Dreamweaver before but I feel like understand the background code better is good. I thought tables would be more complicated than that. Pleasantly surprised.

Book points out that some designers frown on animated gifts because of overuse in the 90s. I bet these same people cringe when encountering tumblr (for the record, I love tumblr)

I do like that it told me how to make lists. I get frustrated with bloggers list presets sometimes. They always seem to get confused and not do what I want them to.

Stuff that has been going on at work lately has made me realize that I should've never stopped trying to improve my skills and learn new skills. I understand some basic HTML but want to know more. One thing I can already say about this book is that it's graphically stunning. Very inviting to read and look at.
