Yeah im not gonna get into arguing stored procedures again, hes already shown his pure lack of understanding of multiple technologies, so anything he says should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Any CSS coder willing to work for free? - The response

Greetings all, i type before you with a much anticipated response.

I had abandoned the thread, yes. I abandoned it when it was starting Page 4 because i did not like where it was going :) (Getting attacked) In attempt to please you all i have compiled a list of what i think is the best to answer, after that i will make some statements :)

Lol. CSS is a language ?

Cascading Style Sheets is a programming langauge used in Web development to make a site pretty. I suspect you're trolling so i reckon that response would be good enough.

Now where is CSS in that list ? Lol.

Yes, come with a sh'tty website noone's heard about posing it as if it's some authority of langauges. Now, where is Self on that list?

can it interface with a database, save data to a file. or do anything meaningful, other make pretty colors on a website ?

Seeing that your criteria for what determines a programming language are these, i can now conclude your statements rhetoric.

My take as well. Could have easily done it for him but the attitude got to me. Could also have handled it like "just code" and give him some quickie instead of a proper job.

Dude. OP was acting completely arrogant not valuing a developers time at all saying "it's only code".

He got what he deserved.

When i said it's just code i mean it's "just code" as compared to what i do ofcourse :mad:
If i tell you, you will know that it does not compare :mad:

OP, what stops your free CSS provider from stealing your idea?

He/she won't because i trust him/her not to steal/copy it :D*sigh*:erm:

If you going to try be a smart c*ck compare apples with applies. You are making yourself appear to be very uneducated to anything other than your linear mindset of technologies out there.

Can your database language create responsive websites ? Can your database language create responsive websites ? And if you think CSS is just for creating "colors" on websites it clearly shows your lack of understanding of web related technology. As you were troll.

Lmfao, well said.


Ooooookay, semi argument concluding aside. Thank you KoeksGHT for assisting me. KoeksGHT helped me by starting me off very well, very well indeed. I felt a bit could change here and there and so there i was mastering usage of "Inspect Element" across all browsers editting my stylesheets in a live manner. Thank you KoeksGHT :)

battletoad also reached out, tnx 2u2 :p


As much as i would love to say, "Hey check out the end result" when the website finally launches, i'm afraid i can't show you MyBBer's because you might be like: "Nice site but the webmaster is a douche" as opposed to not knowing it and being like "Cool, nice site :-)"

Aaaanyway, *sigh* yea.

Lol no reason to get upset. As has been explained to anybody that can do a decent job it's not just code. If it was you could easily do it yourself. That view feels like a lack of appreciation and whoring oneself out while it can be done as proper code with excellent results.

If I needed a brain surgeon I wouldn't just ask someone to do a quick job because it's just an operation.

I'm not trolling mate. Was just trying to have a friendly chat. Yes, I poked fun at CSS. Big deal. People need to grow up. People poke fun at VB, at java, at perl. I myself work with a language which is very limited. But, it's does the job it was designed for efficiently. I never insulted any one individual(except that knob, Semphwhatever. The only reason he joined this thread was to have a go at me :) ). Taking the piss out of their language wasn't meant as a personal dig at anyone. But if they want to take it that way, well that's their business. In not bothered at all.

On the whole "is it a language" thing, well I already cleared that up. You are a bit late. It's a language yes. But :) It's not a programming language. It's a style sheet language.

With comments like this one, especially when you are asking for free help, you are definitely seen as a douche:

I don't know how i missed this but i'm glad i found it, and mind you i'm having a "bad day".

Look, *Insult goes here, i won't use it though because morkhans the oh so wonderful mod a.k.a mr i give u infraction until 2014, might see it*. I know better than you when it comes to coding. That's a fact i can conclude right now. I won't even bother battling you about it over the internet since you can just use Google (By the way, i can, actually because there are many things your precious Google won't be able to answer).

What sort of deluded person are you to actually think that code written from scratch will actually ever be inferior to anything else?
How is this even a debate? Code frameworks restrict you and guide you. Nothing can beat something that's coded from scratch! Nothing!

The very same frameworks you would be coding from in the first place are coded from scratch, guess what, it had to start somewhere! that's right, CODING FROM SCRATCH IS THE GODFATHER OF YOUR COPIED CODE.

It makes no sense at all why anyone who is a web developer would say that something using pure code from the ground up is not as powerfully flexible as copied code.

You sir, are not only *insult goes here* at your craft. But you are an *insult goes here* .

Psst, hey, did you see that? thanks morkahns, you made the internet fun again, didn't you?! -_-

have you made a switch to SASS exclusively in your ruby projects?
Click to expand...

I have never heard about SASS before (Or now newer SCSS according to their site) ... but holy god you just rocked my world!! :D

I am so going to figure out how to use this going forward!! I will never have to remember or copy and paste a HEX code amongst different properties every again :D

@Op ... I'm far from a pro-dev ... I consider myself beginner to amateur. BUT ... I did and learnt what I needed to when I needed to. If you truly believe in your idea, you will go and figure it out ... especially for something that is as simple as basic CSS.

When I started Digital Addiction many moons ago, I could not write a simple PHP app, let alone organize and adjust an e-commerce platform. So what did I do ... I installed the platform, and started learning how to adjust the stuff I needed to adjust in real time. When I had to play with the templates and styling, I would look what was already there ... try figure it out, change something ... see what it does, and eventually get what I needed done, done!

CSS is not difficult ... if you can program HTML, you can figure CSS in minutes ... at least the basic properties of it.

Admittedly, there is a lot in CSS I don't know, or when I need it ... google the answer, implement it, then eventually forget how to do it until I need it again.

For the life of me though, I cannot figure out how to tell the CSS code, when creating a template to temporarily overwrite another template, that "X" Class on Stylesheet1.css should take preference over "X" Class on Stylesheet0.css ... sometimes it just works, sometimes it doesn't :p :o ... And I still cannot figure how to use the "!important", or even what it does ... I thought it was supposed to be used for an example like mine above ... but doesn't always work :p
