The subreddit infographic is terrible on its own, but the underlying logic (moderator connections) is just abysmal. There was a time (maybe now, even, if they haven't fixed it) where any subreddit could add anyone as a moderator withou

As someone who went through a job hunt without a "Dribbblized" portfolio a couple years ago: Go with the Dribbble approach. At least if you're looking for anything resembling a design job. That final layer of polish and execu

Less saturated colors definitely produce better themes. The very-close-to-white colors (and white itself) behave weird in general but I liked all the results so I just kept it. Should fix that navbar contrast issue though... Be careful with

Nope, color wheels are crazy. Different wheel, different results. I'm guessing LESS and CSD3 don't use the same wheel.

I've been considering building something like that out for SchemeLESS, but I'm not quite sure how to implement it yet. If I do it there, I'll definitely be adding it to this page.

I probably won't. You can overwrite any color in scheme.less, though, if you download it and play around with it. You can also tweak things like the theme's contrast, and the breaks where it considers things "light" and

1pxdeep is more about showcasing relative color design, not so much the colors themselves. I stand behind the algorithmic color generation I've put into SchemeLESS, but it's intended as a starting point. The theme doesn't jus

The demo requires client-side LESS to work.

Yep, just use LESS normally and you'll see the huge up-front load times go away.

Looks like it's broken for everything but the smallest and largest layouts. EDIT: It's fixed now, thanks for pointing it out.

Apologies to anyone who got nabbed by this. Bootstrap 3's changes, while fantastic, made it much harder to optimize the previewer on this version, since I couldn't just load everything in asynchronously on top of the basic Bootstr

If you're looking for a more color-friendly base Bootstrap (not 3... yet), check out Flamingo, which also uses SchemeLESS: http://rriepe.github.io/flamingo/ If you like 1pxdeep's stylings, start with a @seed-

It's a trade-off: You lose the context of the document but you gain more err... modality. Bootstrap uses transparency by default to preserve the page context, but that just didn't work as well with the color theming.

More saturated colors get more dramatic themes, if that's what you're looking for: http://rriepe.github.io/1pxdeep/#ff3f38 It's also completely built on SchemeLESS, so you can easily override any color i

I think the guys at Adioso are on to something potentially cool. But after reading this blog post and checking out their site, the only three words on my mind are "Video coming soon..."

Given TechCrunch's struggles with credibility over the past few years, maybe it should have been more of an issue. In the end though, you're right: Giving thanks doesn't hurt anyone too much. But giving thanks for any of the things I mentio

I can't emphasize this enough: You don't owe Sarah Perez a damn thing. Not a "thank you" and especially not a debt of gratitude. You can thank journalists for a lot of things: balanced coverage, fairness, excellent writing quality. Never, e

HN discussion of this (non) story from a couple weeks ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3747699 I'd love to see some actual data on this. But it just doesn't seem important enough or big enough to go out and collect it.

Most clever PR looks a whole lot like common sense. "If there's a potential problem on the horizon, nip it in the bud," about perfectly sums up crisis comms, a large part of PR. They're absolutely in the PR game. Any high-profile company is

I should've explained what I saw as the "amateur" PR move: Collecting the data and saying it wasn't a real problem. (Or perhaps ignoring it, but arguably they've been doing that.) That solution takes time, resources and doesn't necessarily
