Live Design Journal: Raw layout

One of the things I didn’t miss from working with CSS was the numerous hacks one had to apply in order to create a relatively complex layout. In my opinion, anything with more than 2 columns can be considered complex.

Sure, there are hundreds of 3 column CSS layouts on the web, but to find one where I could easily adapt to my site’s dimensions (Stu Nicholl’s was too hard to do that). Thankfully, after many attempts, including some of my own. I found a layout I could adapt to my design and change easily by using Layout-o-matic.

My time to work on converting the theme was very short, because I had to attend on my best friend’s birthday party. But! I had enough time find a good layout, and adapt it’s dimensions to the ones I needed.  As I type this right now, it’s 4am, and I am slowly converting it to a wordpress theme.

    Ooo it looks like your footer is outside of your container…making it stretch outside of your content area.

    Can’t wait to see the styles and stuff!

    Yes, it’s meant to be like that, part of the footer will stretch out, and the header will be the same ;)
