Transcending CSS: The Fine Art of Web Design (Voices That Matter)
19/02/2007 by admin.
Synopsis
As the Web evolves to incorporate new standards and the latest browsers offer new possibilities for creative design, the art of creating Web sites is also changing. Few Web designers are experienced programmers, and as a result, working with semantic markup and CSS can create roadblocks to achieving truly beautiful designs using all the resources available.

CSS: Browser testing order
19/02/2007 by admin.
I would prefer that clients save money for more valuable things than achieving pixel perfection
It’s been a while since I wrote about CSS on And All That Malarkey, I’ve been busy documenting some of my working methods and thought that I would share Stuff and Nonsense’s current CSS/browser testing order.

Osman Waqialla - Sudanese Calligrapher
19/02/2007 by admin.
A Sudanese calligrapher of international renown, he set a new benchmark in the Arabic canon.
Osman Waqialla, who has died of malaria aged 81, would have described himself as a simple khattat, the Arabic word for a calligrapher, but this implies in Islamic culture much more than the practice of beautiful writing. It is the living embodiment of a tradition that began in the first century of Islam (seventh century AD) when the Qur’an was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad in Arabia and began to be written down. Waqialla was one its great practitioners.
Waqialla graduated from the Gordon Memorial College, Khartoum, Sudan, 1945;the School of Design, Khartoum, 1946;and, having received a scholarship, Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts, London, 1949. He later travelled to Egypt, where he trained as a calligrapher under the master Sayyid Muhammed Ibrahim (d. 1994) at the School of Arabic Calligraphy, Cairo.
