Used to draw round corners [the biggest design trend request circa 2002] using tables with cells of one pixel, painting every cell mimicking a perfect anti-aliased curve in a photoshop rectangle, a mere 32 cell table per corner, lol.
- Vanderson 7y agoThat takes the cake. The worst I did was 9 cells, with images in each corner. How did you maintain your sanity when one cell went bonkers on it's dimensions for no good reason?
- emp_ 7y agoYour comment made me remember that every cell had a blank gif so the dimensions would be exact! Even found a wiki about it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacer_GIF https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacer_GIF
- Vanderson 7y agoYep, an image was the only way to "guarantee" the cell displayed at a specific width/height. These are the kinds of things that taught me most hacks aren't worth doing.
