@krisbulman I personally don’t use CSS frameworks, but I see Bootstrap issues in Sass issue queue like woah. @inuitcss
-
@krisbulman So where can I report all of Bootstrap for those who use it? Tons of @Extend issues because of need to abuse. @inuitcss
-
If you have to abuse a CSS Framework to get it to behave sanely, maybe you should stop using it.

RT @acarboni: WHAT? This Pulp Fiction/Kill Bill connection just blew my mind: yeahapparently.tumblr.com/post/43682830458/patrickcotnoir-my-head-just-exploded-i-just-i

Feels very strange working on a non-responsive site where pixels are a thing and I don’t have to worry about things breaking fluidly.

“Thanks for your recent purchase from our Men’s department, here’s a coupon for our Women’s department.” #wtf

@BubbleHeadInc No. Please file a ticket so I can look when I’ve got free time.
-
@BubbleHeadInc Generally speaking, BTW, it’s better to file a ticket than ask me on Twitter. Please do so.
-
@BubbleHeadInc I’ll need to look later. I don’t use the PNG version of replace-text-pe, so don’t know the issue off top of my head.
-
@BubbleHeadInc What’s your browser + version, screen size, monitor size? The 1.5 is best practice as opposed to solid 1/2
-
@BubbleHeadInc Desktop has nothing to do with it, it’s all resolution, and the specifics vary between browsers…
-
@MoOx @marcedwards the smaller ones, a little bit but not too bad. The larger ones are fine.
-
@marcedwards as for # vs size, both are very important, and a font for icons reduces both.
-
@marcedwards …in CSS background images. An inline woff for icons > individual SVGs
-
@marcedwards actually, a single woff file tends to be smaller than single SVG file. They do support CSS, but only when used inline, not…
-
@marcedwards Also, when it comes to SVG, much prefer inlining individual SVGs than sprites to allow for playing w/sizes easily.
-
@marcedwards Fonts agree great for icons and when you need to control styling in the same manner as the rest of your CSS
-
@marcedwards Disagree again. Different tech for different needs. SVGs are great for complex images, but large&cumbersome for icons
-
@marcedwards Take a look again, really since the GH blog post, pixel snapped is becoming super common. @MoOx
-
@marcedwards @MoOx GitHub does it too; there was actually a huge blog post about it. symbolset.com is also pretty fantastic.
-
@marcedwards @MoOx Ligatures my friend, ligatures! Something icomoon supports!
-
@marcedwards @MoOx Everything has its place. For icons or two tone images, fonts++. For more complex, agreed SVG w/PNG fallback
-
@marcedwards @MoOx Disagree again. When done right they are more accessible and smaller than SVG. Both have their place, don’t count em out
