I know you loved custom profile designs so...

Okay, I know you all loved custom profile designs, so... I've thought about options and I really want to keep this feature here. I know The Schart Network is still available but I want to make this the main site, so I need to make an replacement. Maybe I can let people add custom designs to the whole website? To install them... Then I can set up sessions to use the themes. Yeah, that might be it.

I'll give it some more though, and after a while, you might be able to submit custom website template for everyone to use on some sort of theme market.

Please leave your opinion on this in the comment section

11th Post and Counting

This might seem like an small achievement or just a filler post, but honestly, I'm proud of this. I have still not (at the time of this post) released the new Schart for everyone (although the url is pretty obvious, new.schart.net), but have still not forgotten to write articles to fill in the website with interesting content. I hope that I will continue filling in this website, and continue developing to finish it and it's design all the way.

Google Reader is shutting down

Google has announced that Google Reader, an RSS reader and organiser, is going to be shut down no later than by the 1st of July. There have been many theories about why Google has made this decision, one of my favourites is that Google did it because "it isn't them anymore".

What is jQuery UI?

As most of you know, jQuery is an amazing Javascript library. This means that jQuery basically allows you to do more awesome things with more logical and less coding. Now what is, and why should you use jQuery UI?

jQuery UI (stands for User Interface) gives you more options to easily make the user interaction and interface better. It's kind of what jQuery is for Javascript, for jQuery (jQueryception). The interactions are: draggable, droppable, resizable, selectable and sortable. Most of these make sence. Draggable allows you to drag a div (or element) around on the page. Droppable detects when you drop a draggable div on another droppable div. Sortable allows you to move list items around. The rest are pretty obvious.

I am going to leave you with an example you can find at the jQuery UI homepage:

Drag me to my target

Pretty cool, isn't it?

Rounded borders

Rounded borders is another one of the great options that CSS has to style the page without need of any improvising or external images. You can simply add one line of code to make the borders of any element rounded, or even just one of the corners. Take a look at this code:
.rounded{
   border-radius:5px;
   border-top-left-radius:10px;
   }
As you can see, first I declare the border radius or every corner to 5px, and then I change the top left corner to 10px.
