CSS FTW!!!!

[K-Star]

I just learned some basic CSS, and made an external style sheet for my site. Of course, I had to go through and remove or replace alot of HTML in each individual page in order for the sheet to work there, but it was worth it!

Also, I renamed the homepage to index.html, because one of my friends (who's uber good with websites) said that's pretty much the standard thing to do. Makes it easier for me to type the page name, at least!

Go forth, and check out my (not so) 1337 CSS SKILLZ!

Another thing I did was remove the shoutbox, because I was starting to get nasty messages from some of the assholes who saw my Final Countdown video on youtube and went to my profile and found the site.

I like the static background - nice!

Wait until the CSS bug grabs you, and you find yourself shouting at the computer saying things like "It works in one browser, why won't it work in this one? NOOO!!" lol

Seriously - CSS can be used to great effect, and can really make a website stand out, if done well. You'll be adding more and more to that style sheet as you learn, that's for sure!

Well as long as it works in IE7 I'm happy, cuz that's what I use.

Static background was EASY.

Easy to implement, yes - but there are plenty of websites that implement them in a garish, clashing manner.

ZOMG PEOPLE GO LOOK AT MY SITE AGAIN! I downloaded a free CSS template and have started implementing it into my website. The index shows the new style, while all the other pages still have the old layout. IT EVEN HAS A FRICKIN SIDEBAR!!! WOOT!!!

CSS is good, even though several browsers often produce different results. But you can generally correct that pretty well.

Well I tested it on Opera, through viewing it on my friend's wii. Works fine there.

CSS is awesome! Separation of concerns FTW!

Keep up the good work - you'll be a CSS wiz in no time.

P.S. - I like your banner, are those edited Pokémon sprites? Super cute!
