Re: White Blue Style

mmm extremly simply, but it's good.

Re: White Blue Style

i dont like scrolling wink  thx

Re: White Blue Style

Why are you using "float:left" on #brd-wrap? Centering is always good.

Also, for the HR's:

hr{
border:1px solid #444;
border-width: 1px 0 0 0;
}

Re: White Blue Style

good point

/* General Layout
-------------------------------------------------------------*/

.brd {
/*    padding: 1.3em 2em;*/
    padding: 1.3em 0;
    margin: 0 auto;
    max-width: 1100px;
    min-width: 700px;
    width: 80%;
/*    float: left;*/
    }

changed it now

I had done it for when there is a banner on right hand side....


hr{
border:1px solid #444;
border-width: 1px 0 0 0;
} 

sorry, what's that for?

Re: White Blue Style

For me, it's too white.
Subtle borders are always helpful.
Also, my users have been complaining about all-white backgrounds saying they are too bright and white.

You mention scrolling but I don't see how your style has reduced scrolling.

See this topic for a good way that I want to reduce scrolling

Re: White Blue Style

scrolling: just the font size  might reduce the scrolling a bit when looking at forums (not topics I suppose)

but I see your point - or your users point - on bright white (especially with large screeens) - ideal maybe if users could select from drop down menu 3 styles that cover most taste and have a cookie or something remember. even unlogged users just choosing from dropdown. (I visit sites that I hate colors of but like layout or content)

but i'll be sure to dabble with black and white, or grey... big_smile
thx for feedback

Re: White Blue Style

hr{
border:1px solid #444;
border-width: 1px 0 0 0;
} 

It's for the <hr/>'s. Right now they are shaded and 2px high.
