    Useful Webdesign Tools

    Sublime Text 2 FTW!!!! Best editor I've used. It's free kind of (you'll just get a pop up every now and then asking if you want to purchase). It's fast! It's very customizable. Its plugins are awesome.

    Tell me what you think (new site)

    I think it's a bit redundant to have the logo that says "Vances Tropical Fish" on the left and the address with the big heading "Vances Tropical Fish" on the right. Then you have a "Welcome to Vances Tropical Fish"....too much mention of "Vances Tropical Fish". I would try replacing the "Vance's...

    New site up - What do you think?

    I notice you use 2 <br /> tags to create space between your paragraphs when each of your paragraphs can be in their own <p> tag. A better or more semantic way of creating your links on the side would be to put them in an unordered list. I'm pretty sure most of the sites you looked at use...

    New site up - What do you think?

    You shouldn't use the <br /> for spacing elements apart as much as you do. Most of the instances where you do use the <br /> can be done with margin or padding. You need to validate your site and get it 100% validated. Design wise...you should increase the leading of your paragraphs because...

    Handlebars vs Mustache

    Anyone have experience using either one or both of these templating languages? I know Handlebars is built off of Mustache, so would it be better for me to learn Handlebars? I'm just looking for a good templating language to learn.

    Rules For HTML Email

    I looked at your code for your website for a brief second and realized all of your css is inline. I would suggest you use external stylesheets for all your css.

    Relaunch & rebranding of car hire site

    I would get rid of the horrible brown background gradient no offense. It makes no sense. I think you guys could tone down on the gradient usage. The site is responsive but not in a graceful way. Mainly on the Home page. That needs some love.

    Mobile website/design

    If your site isn't bulky, then I would go with CSS media queries. Otherwise creating a separate mobile version would be better if you have a site that has tons of content.

    Rules For HTML Email

    The current designs we create right now are either single or 2 column layouts. So I created a boilerplate for each of those layouts. So whenever we get a new layout, I just copy and paste the single or double column layout template code and get to coding. Makes the process alot faster. I've...

    Rules For HTML Email

    As far as your issue, it's hard to say without looking at your code. How I setup my emails usually is I have a <table> wrapper with a width of 100%. Then a nested <table> container with a width of 540-640 and align="centered" which centers it in the middle of the page. I then nest tables within...
