As Simon noted the other day learning CSS is still full of pitfalls, particularly if you don’t live, sleep, eat web development. Although my forays into the realm of separated content and presentation were fairly painless, even the limited number of inconsistencies I found (just looking on IE, Firebird and Mozilla) were still a bit of a knock. Luckily, however, Dave Shea with the help of the world is putting together a CSS Crib Sheet.
UPDATE: Great explanation about Margin Collapsing via the Crib Sheet mentioned above.
I also found this fantastic Flash animation about how the design process works. I found it very interesting and quite a good description of some of the things that go on in my mind when I’m trying to do creative work … although I wouldn’t extrapolate that to anyone else’s brain too readily 😉

You mean we’re *allowed* to do that?
1) Guess Im working more effictively than I thought
2) My mind works in a similar way to Meri’s. Go figure.

Tony: You’re allowed to do that if it helps you produce a good result. In your case, I have my doubts.
Meri: That flash animation is fantastic, but why do I have Billy Joel stuck in my head now? 😉 Also, my LJ now lings weblogs.com when I update – that’s the best I can do.
