The Easiest Way to Test IE6 with Firefox

June 12, 2010 By Schwabe 5 comments

Hard to believe, but it's almost been a decade since the original release of Internet Explorer 6. What's even harder to believe is that we still have to maintain cross browser compatibility with it!

Still holding a 20% share on everyday browser use, it's an annoying but justified procedure to make sure website code renders correctly in IE6. That means implementing the workarounds, the hacking, or whatever it takes to get it behaving the same way as a modern browser.

That said, I wanted to share the easiest possible way on earth anyone could possibly test IE6 with Firefox. Just in case someone hasn't already heard of the awesome project known as Spoon.

Top 100 CSS Designs of 2007

December 29, 2007 By Schwabe 18 comments

From big budget to small budget, intense to simplistic, this is one monster of a top 100 compilation! Take a moment to enjoy this year's best designs the world has to offer. Each site is rated in order of uniqueness, visual quality, and overall presentation.

The arduous process of identifying the top 100 designs of 2007 was simple: find the best, new designs (including redesigns) of 2007 and rate them in order from 100 to one. With particular emphasis on new trends with clean CSS layouts, vibrant colors, amazing artwork, and damn good design skills.

Some designs are just stunning. As a nerd business owner and designer myself, I have, throughout 2007, collected these stunning designs as bookmarks and I'm sharing the links with you for your own viewing benefit. The original list consisted of about 190 hand picked designs AND just so I didn't miss anything I relentlessly scoured the archives of various CSS Gallery sites (who specialize in this type of thing) so that no one was missed.

Enjoy the Top 100 CSS Designs of 2007 below:
