Proving once and for all that standards-compliant design does not equal dull design, this inspiring tome uses examples from the landmark CSS Zen Garden site as the foundation for discussions on how to create beautiful, progressive CSS-based Web sites.

In sections on design, layout, imagery, typography, effects, and themes, Dave and Molly take you through every phase of the design process–from striking a sensible balance between text and graphics to creating eye-popping special effects (no scripting required).

Professional ASP NET 2 0 Design: CSS, Themes, and Master Pages (Programmer to Programmer) (0S/0L)
hemes are a way to allow programmers to establish “skinnable” websites that can be programmatically adjusted for various purposes. A webmaster may decide that there should be a certain look and feel for site administrators while registered users see a different look and the remaining users see still a different view when they visit the site. This could include, among other things, completely different controls, graphics, and/or color schemes for each group. Users may want to set up a theme specifically targeted to meet the needs of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that removes all images and background colors and leaves the pages in stark contrast for that particular user group. Or maybe the developer just wants to let people choose the way they experience the site each time they visit.
Themes are very powerful and this book aims to highlight the potential of ASP.NET 2.0 Themes as well as their relationship to master pages and CSS in web applications today and illustrate many of the facets that can and should be included in theme development. While not specifically a designer’s book, an overview of good web design and even a cheater’s guide to PhotoShop will be included with the intent of taking the average ASP.NET Programmer and given them the knowledge to be “Renaissance Men and Women” of web design.
Specific topics covered in the book include:
* Browser, bandwidth, and accessibility considerations
* Use of color, fonts, multimedia
* CSS classes, elements, and Visual Studio CSS tools
* Master pages, child pages, and inheritance
* Consistent navigation and Site Maps
* Theme files, skin files, and applying themes
* A mobile theme example
* Basic PhotoShop tricks for Web Developers

Pro CSS and HTML Design Patterns (0S/0L)
Design patterns have been used with great success in software programming. They improve productivity, creativity, and efficiency in web design and development, and they reduce code bloat and complexity. In the context of CSS and HTML, design patterns are sets of common functionality that work across various browsers and screen readers, without sacrificing design values or accessibility or relying on hacks and filters. But until now they have not been applied systematically to HTML and CSS web design and development.
With the help of Pro CSS and HTML Design Patterns, you can reap the benefits of using design patterns in your HTML and CSS code. The book provides you with all the CSS and HTML design patterns you need. Web development expert and author Michael Bowers then takes you through multiple design patterns for text, backgrounds, borders, images, forms, layouts, and much more. He shows you exactly how each one works, and how to use them most effectively in your own projects. After you learn about these design patterns, you’ll wonder how you ever developed web sites without them!
