CSS poop test

[JewKnowIt]

Okay so I decided to force feed myself CSS.... and I must admit..... it tastes good.
Yes, it tastes good even though my "skillz" in css are very LACKING and it looks like poop.

But I figured I'd let you epic level designers of god-like powa decide if I'm even coming close to figuring CSS out.

The poop (http://meadvillemessianic.f-sw.com/CSSsamples/sample.html) is here for your view pleasure or disgust.:D

Any feedback, critiques, and pointers are welcome

Good usage of CSS, but stay clear of the default blues and reds.

I totally agree about the defaults... as we as avoiding red in general. If for any reason you are confused on a declaration, or property: http://www.w3schools.com/CSS/css_reference.asp is a good reference!

also, looks like you didn't indent at all... it is good practice to do this:


#test {
font-weight: bold;
background: #000000;}

the indenting makes for a quick scan for problems, or when looking for a declaration block that needs editing. Don't forget the "shorthand" properties like background and border and margin and padding!! :)

good luck -- have fun!

Well that's a slight problem..... my next site is going to be a (american) political site. I figured red, white, and blue. Instead of designating "red" or "blue" can I use a RGB or Hex color close enough to what I want?

[BBarash]

Yeah, hex colours are perfectly acceptable in css, e.g

color: #363738

Can't edit the above post, forgot the semi-colon at the end.

color: #363738;
