“I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

Getting baselined

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

Yes! I did it, it took a few hours but finally the old layout has been updated with a baseline (and partly a grid). It looks a lot better. Image of previous style and layout. Main difficulty was to realize that the em is a relative unit depending on whatever base font size you set in an absolute unit. (*_*)

Time for some linkage:

A long time ago, I read those tutorials. Today, I just woke up. The inspiration came from a recent development: a CSS framework. To experience the beauty of having a baseline try syncotype and, for this site, set the line-height to 24px. Syncotype rocks!

I will be playing with the style these days as there are some minor areas that need attention like: list spacing, form controls spacing, color scheme …and that header. (¬_¬)
