It's supposed to be a link-saving system with easy categorizing.

I think the title font needs changing, and/or the background color. The top bar (in green, at the very top) doesn't look that great, and your menu would look better without it in my honest opinion. The Funny/News/Love buttons should be centered, and shouldn't use radio controls, but instead a javascript. the "Load more" button should have the same color and font as the "Add" button.
Apart from all those minor things, looks great!

I did try not to show the radio button, but how do you convey the sense that you need at least one of them checked without it ?

I have no idea, but at a guess I would suggest a pulsing background.

Here is what I mean in my other post (well, in some part anyway).
[QUOTE=KmartSqrl;39633927]I'd recommend [url]http://www.getharvest.com/[/url] for invoicing. It's a very mature, battle-tested product. I've been using it for over 5 years and I have tried a lot of different invoicing solutions. Nothing I've used even comes close to harvest.[/QUOTE]
I still need something to replace Magento's invoicing system (it's not very good), and this might do the trick. Thanks!

I am doing (believe it or not) responsive design for the first time. It's the first time I've done design for personal work in a long time and I'm finally giving spoonfedstyle.com some design love. Taking a mobile-first approach and really digging it. It definitely forces you to think essentials a lot more.

Also thinking about writing my own version of masonry.js because it's way more of a pain in the ass to get fluid width columns with fixed gutters than it should be, especially if you don't want an ugly extra margin on the right.

I used masonry.js for a work project, but it needs the whole page to load before it's invoked, which is horrid on some connections and layouts. For example with my crappy connection on your site there, I get a good 5 seconds or so of a weirdly stacked layout before it all snaps in properly, disrupting my browse position and sanity. For that reason I decided to use a normal layout instead. There's probably some way around it like loading in chunks but I couldn't be bothered hacking at it for hours. Let me know if you do end up making your own better version as I could use it.
I decided to make myself a little blog/portfolio as I didn't have one before. Not really a designer but I did my best. You can find it at [url]http://carl.bitcanvas.co.uk/[/url] until I can afford a domain. Media queries really are the best. I'm having a really odd problem with disqus in that its js hack thing shows 6 comments on an article with 0 - I'm setting the id manually and everything :s

I did responsive design for the first time the other day as well, I really enjoyed it. I managed to only use CSS with a lot of tinkering. You just need to make sure your html structered nicely. I finally got my nexus 7 and was able to fix my design for it!
I'm using a little JS to do mine because I have some elements that I'm moving to totally different spots and I feel like I'd end up writing tons of junk CSS to get them where I want at all resolutions without JS.
Using this [url]https://github.com/ten1seven/jRespond[/url] and jquery .appendTo() to move a few elements around.

Rails seems like overkill for something as simple as that.

He wanted to learn rails, I guess.
Its amazing how much "devs" a company can bring in by giving free software. Last year in school 90% of the students used php for their web assignment and this year 90% picks asp.net because we got free vs2012.
The world is never going to run out of shitty enterprise ASP.net developers.
I've been guilty of doing mostly adaptive web design (designing for strictly 4 different sizes: desktop, tablet, mobile landscape and mobile portrait, using media queries) but on my newer projects I've been working on fully responsive approaches with CSS. Whichever you choose though, once you do a couple of them you start thinking in an entirely new mindset and it becomes second nature when you look at page layouts. I think it's really fun and makes design even more interesting, and from my experience, clients think it is [b]totally[/b] cool.

Don't you lose a bit of functionality if you go for responsive?

[QUOTE=SweFox*;39645015]Don't you lose a bit of functionality if you go for responsive?[/QUOTE]
Why would that be the case? All responsive design means is having different styles for different screen properties.
I was thinking about something, there isn't a good social network for porn and their variants, right?

porn 'and their variants' aren't the most social of things 3bh
[QUOTE=SweFox*;39645015]Don't you lose a bit of functionality if you go for responsive?[/QUOTE]
Not if you do it right. I'm really liking designing mobile first and then enhancing the desktop experience. It forces you to think about what's critical and what's not and I think it ends up giving you a better user experience because of that.
What exactly is the difference between adaptive and responsive? Is it just simply the way it loads (responsive loads all while adaptive loads based on your screen)? Or is there more to it?
They're synonyms and anyone that tries to argue otherwise is way too focused on semantics instead of the idea behind responsive/adaptive design.

I agree but it would still be nice to know if some client thinks differently :D
