It's always tricky to adjust the padding/margin values because you need to take into account each case in which these 3 added pixels will have an impact. Maybe the style applied to this particular box is shared with other elements or maybe

The project has reached a $196K funding while the initial goal was "only" $12K. Maybe Kickstarter should limit the amount of money to this initial goal, or at least to twice the amount of this goal. If a project looks promising, more people

Interesting article that summarizes quite well the criticism aimed at CSS you come across periodically on the web. The way CSS is written amongst the web developers and designers depends on whether you have easy access to the HTML or not. I

In 2006, I entered a web design class in a local private school. We "learned" to design websites in Dreamweaver, using tables for the layout. I remember once, the teacher told us that, in order to achieve a particular layout, we had to del

It's more a logic question than a math one. The confusion spawns from the fact that the three numbers present in the question are 10, 2, and 3 (so the thought process would be 2 = 10 min so 1 = 5 min, thus 3 = 15 min). But 2 represents the

To keep things squared, you'd have to cross out people at the rate they die as well. And although the colors may suggest otherwise, the 5 continents division is not based on race but rather on location.

You're absolutely right. Tabs are most useful when you already know the song. As you say, most tabs don't include much information besides pitch and order, but can include guitar-specific ones, such as bends or slides. It's possible though

I've come across Synthesia before and it's well-thought learning tool. But its major drawback is that it's only aimed at piano players. I think Hummingbird's goal is to become an alternate standard of global music notation, based on the f

Maybe it's easier to learn, but it's definitely not simpler. There's a difference [1]. Probably because I'm used to reading the tradional notation, I had a hard time deciphering theirs. There's a reason why, after centuries , the standard

There have been and will be many redesigns attempts of HN, when it actually doesn't need one. I wrote about it [1]. HN's design isn't neutral. It carries a message that is bigger than purely graphical appeal. Some UI elements could possibly

It's a nice initiative but only aimed at developers. Only yesterday, I was browsing this page: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/contribute/ (How to get involved with Mozilla). I'm a non-English web designer so I thought "Maybe I could help w

It's always good practice for a company/product to provide easy access to its logo, in different formats (EPS and PNG at least) along with some guidelines, through a dedicated page so that Google can index it easily so it eventually becomes

The exact same happens with GMail. I use the keyboard shortcut "L" to label my mails. But because my mouse is usually somewhere around the location of the labels submenu before it even renders, I'll often apply the wrong label: the one at

Exactly what I was thinking. I never noticed that Amazon's dropdown both displayed the submenu instantly and prevented it from mistakenly disappearing. Speed is also involved. For example, if you hover on Sports & Outdoors and quick

Looking at the code, the design is mostly done in CSS: the obvious border-radius for the circles, :before pseudo-classes for the origin, and rotate transformations along with transitions for the animated arrow. Circle sizes are based upon t

It's actually not a color problem. It's at #222, and even turning it to full black doesn't solve the issue. The font is just incredibly thin. Increasing the font-size is a better option here.

When I'm walking and I reach a crossroad where my 2 available options are very close in terms of distance, I usually avoid coming to a halt at all and just start running in one arbitrary direction. Even if my chosen path ends up being sligh

Yes, I find them confusing as well. It's because the 2 options are mutually exclusive. So you have to decide to either display the current state (On or Off), or display the possible action ( switching to On or Off). It always takes me a fe

I haven't signed up for New Hive, I've just watched the video. I'm not sure if it suits the purpose of a blog well. Are there templates available? Otherwise, it'd be annoying to have to 'design' your page everytime you post a new page. Also

It's always hard to get excited by such new 'fancy' CSS features when the examples (espcially the gradient and pattern ones) look like Word Art renderings. But I recall such kinds of post flourishing when people were discussing box-shadows,

Nice visualization. Looking at the keyboard from the side [1] reminds me of some youtube piano tutorials [2] where the keys drop from above (just like guitar hero). I tried to drag & drop one of my MIDI files (as advised) but it didn't

I find these gears icons funny because it is implied that all 3 gears touch each other mutually . But obviously, such a setup would prevent the whole machinery to work at all.
