LOGOS

We've all found ourselves stuck when it comes to identity design. What style does the client expect or desire? How will your logo be relevant to its product, and will it express the correct message to viewers?

8 LITTLE DESIGN SECRETS
"CSS sprites save HTTP requests by using CSS positioning to selectively display composite background images. To maximize accessibility and usability, CSS sprites are best used for icons or decorative effects."

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets -it is a simple mechanism for adding style (e.g. fonts, colors, spacing) to Web documents. I looked it up because I still don't fully understand it.

According to Wikipedia: CSS can be used locally by the readers of web pages to define colors, fonts, layout, and other aspects of document presentation. It is designed primarily to enable the separation of document content (written in HTML or a similar markup language) from document presentation (written in CSS). This separation can improve content accessibility, provide more flexibility and control in the specification of presentation characteristics, and reduce complexity and repetition in the structural content (such as by allowing for tableless web design). CSS can also allow the same markup page to be presented in different styles for different rendering methods, such as on-screen, in print, by voice (when read out by a speech-based browser or screen reader) and on Braille-based, tactile devices. CSS specifies a priority scheme to determine which style rules apply if more than one rule matches against a particular element. In this so-called cascade, priorities or weights are calculated and assigned to rules, so that the results are predictable.
