Slider Progress: Slider Styling Option Pane

Michael Robinson — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 08:51:10 +0000

During the great rewrite, I’ve been trying to focus on one section at a time. The first section to come under attack was “everything pertaining to the styling of Slider that is not Arrow-related”. After much mucking-about I decided to combine the Border, Rounded Corner, Background Image, Gradient and Background Colour onto one Pane. I [...]

Michael Robinson — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 06:50:11 +0000

Styling JS-Comments is really quite straightforward. I strongly recommend you read this post before moving on, as it contains tips on resizing JS-Kit elements, such as the width/height of comments, among other things.

Michael Robinson — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 12:01:59 +0000

So I created a PHP script that is included in the "Prefix" of my blog pages. It consists of one function that is passed a few pieces of information, and spits out a nicely formatted footer section.

JS-Kit Comments + Greybox on Any Page

For some reason, Greybox popped into my head, and wouldnâ€™t leave. A few hours later, this happened: Hangzhou Day 1.
