[QUOTE=Sumtoxx;15760846]You can't say you won't use serif fonts if you're even considering being a web developer or designer. Even though you may have a burning passion to hate any serif font you may see, you'r client may [b]want[/b] that font. Serif fonts look just as good, if not better, than sans-serif in certain conditions. Serif fonts are actually better to use when reading very long and large articles. Read around and you'll find plenty of tutorials on how to combine or use serif/sans-serif fonts together :3.
1.) No. Just because they're smaller, doesn't mean they're better. Jivemasta is right, PNG are the way you need to go. Unless the webpage is going to be made of insane graphics and very very graphic heavy. In those cases just use JPEG, but only if you don't lose quality and still have a smaller file size. Its complicated and changes from file to file.
2.) No. Depending on the audience everyone may not have javascript enabled. In which case they'll be left with no navigation. You either need a fallback option to display html links, or just use a maka pure html/css dropdown list in the first place :p.
3.) Just use Arial/Helvetica/Geneva/Verdana. You [b]have[/b] to use a font everyone has already or is "web-safe" otherwise the browser will default back to its default font and make your website look retarded lol.
4.) Color attracts the eye, use it to grab attention and add detail. Rapidweaver is a good example of this:

I don't know about you, but the login image looks pretty much like one from the Silk iconset to me.
Where are the other icons from by the way?
Actually the whole MyBB-based Lamepunch forums were a pretty shitty attempt at copying Garry's style[/QUOTE]
what's a placeholder?!
[QUOTE=DrDaxxy;15766351]Yes it is. Sometimes it's smaller and especially web graphics don't use more than 256 colors that often.[/QUOTE]
maybe in 2002
Well, icons and smilies.
[QUOTE=DrDaxxy;15766351]Yes it is. Sometimes it's smaller and especially web graphics don't use more than 256 colors that often.[/QUOTE]
PNG is much smaller than GIF in 256 color mode. The actual difference depends a lot on the program that generates the PNG, but in nearly every implementation, the PNG is smaller.

Times New Roman is where it's at
If you're looking for a retro feel, Dlaor's site looks pretty cool. Big aliased fonts actually fit in with that style.
I want to DESTROY the 'xhtml compliant' icon at the bottom, mind. Keeping your designs standards-compliant should be STANDARD, not something extra you do to get a medal.
yeah seriously, why do people fap over the little checkmark logo

No, standards compliance is a gimmick.
Valid SGML/XML code is much more important.

Actually its a tool used to help validate you're coding and make sure it works across the board. xhtml is pointless to use now though, except in some rare cases, you're much better off using html4 strict :p.

How about HTML5?
[QUOTE=arienh4;15840584]How about HTML5?[/QUOTE]
Not fully supported yet :C
Though go ahead and use it if yah want XD. Its gonna be a few years before its fully adapted though, so you'll just be way ahead of the game. [b]way ahead.[/b]

Chrome supports it. Firefox supports it. Opera supports it. IE nobody cares about.
I don't see the problem.

None of those browsers support HTML5 completely. HTML5 is much more than canvas and video tags.

I fail to see your point. It's more important to follow a general definition for how a language is described than it is to actually follow the right standard? That doesn't make sense.

You're right, I found that out after replying.

Lol, it really depends on who you're working for. If your making a website for a huge corporation or working on a big project, its better to pay attention to IE (despite how much you hate it). :p

I know, but what do you think user agents are for?
It's funny because anders went out of his way once to criticize my use of icons that weren't famfamfam.
[QUOTE=Pawnstick;15753112]
Know when to use drop shadows or rounded corners, don't go around sticking rounded corners and drop shadows everywhere or I will find you, and I will kill you.
