- daleharvey 16y agothere is always this point at which you start automating things, you have 1 or 2 "discount stickers" or whatever. then you start using them a lot, and at some point it becomes worth it to build a tool to automate it rather than do it by hand. with css you do it once and its pretty much already automated, you just add a class to each "discount" or "tag" button you want. On a side note I really despise the "you are doing it wrong" meme, it virtually always means "you arent doing it with the same concerns I have".

They made buttons in Photoshop.
