Brand New Look for “A List Apart”
A List Apart is “back” with a brand new design, according to CYBERCodeur.net! Terrific!
To be frank now, I’ve never heard of it since I’m only beginning to deepen XHTML and CSS matters with a real shovel, but as the whole community seems to shake with excitement, I had to follow the great lumpen of people where the author starts to feel embarrassed.
Nice design but the fact that I’m not a big fan of MS Trebuchet tends to spoil the ecstasy I should feel. The colours are however harmonious, with a painting-like banner and a logo which is really really well done: the typeface is just perfect, conveying modernity as well as rigour and plainness, reflecting the spirit of XHTML and CSS.
I’m no expert to comment the contents as a Dave Shea might do, but I’m somewhat pleased to see a “Typography” section. And dead pleased to see that Dean Allen, whom I’ve already mentioned within this mess, has contributed to it, since his site is still a reference to my eyes.
