http://www.plaintxt.org Minimalism in blog design, an experiment Thu, 18 Mar 2010 13:32:36 +0000 hourly 1 http://www.plaintxt.org/about/comment-page-1/#comment-9 » WordPress 2.2 : Stan Getz release et le thème Sandbox de plaintxt.org « css4design : des css pour votre design html Wed, 23 Apr 2008 16:17:25 +0000 http://www.plaintxt.org/?page_id=4#comment-9 [...] Pour clarifier mon propos, je vous offre une traduction vite faite de la présentation du concept Sandbox par l’auteur : Le thème Sandbox est un thème pour ceux qui font des thèmes. Il peut être facilement “skinnable”, de sorte que les débutants se sentiront à l’aise pour le styler à condition d’en connaître un minimum sur les CSS. Les plus expérimentés ne pourront s’empêcher de baver devant la richesse sémantique du balisage xhtml et la profusion des classes générées dynamiquement. [...] [...] Pour clarifier mon propos, je vous offre une traduction vite faite de la présentation du concept Sandbox par l’auteur : Le thème Sandbox est un thème pour ceux qui font des thèmes.

Well, almost. For both eldapo and this site I’ve modified the Blog.txt theme slightly to reduce the size of text with the <code> and <pre> tags (where the setting for font size/line height used to be ‘1em/133%’ I now have it at ‘.085em/120%’. Otherwise, I’ve pretty much returned everything to the theme’s defaults. Maybe Scott Allan Wallick (the author of the Blog.txt theme) knows what he’s doing after all.

Will’s design tastes are also just after my own. I love most everything about this design, but especially I love his post layout. I think it’s really clean and open. I also think Will did excellent at integrating certain, choice Sandbox classes. The details are subtle but enhance the design. Thumbs up.

Two judges even had me pegged for first place! Wow! As you may recall, part of my impetus for blogging was to learn something about web design (I’m a graphic artist in the real world) so I’m just absolutely thrilled. There were a lot of original and creative submissions and I’m honored just to be included among them. Many thanks to the judges — all of whom I have a ton of respect for — and the awesome Scott Wallick, co-designer of the Sandbox theme and organizer of the competition.
