RWD - Uneven Panels / rows
@iknowdavehouse, recently, I've been treating floats like positioning. I only use them when absolutely necessary. Inline-block is such a powerful alternative if used properly.

Positioning and Link Span help
@jony, I'm as confused as @Paulie_D on what you meant on point #2. Here's a codepen that replicates your design though: http://codepen.io/ChrisPlz/pen/fxtCu

how can make responsive emailer
Basically there is no such thing as a responsive email. +1. I hate doing HTML emails, but the rule of thumb is: style like it's 1999. Tables in tables in tables in tables...no room for responsiveness. Style for a max pixel width of 600px …

Does anyone NOT use a preprocessor?
IMO, just using preprocessing for nesting is beneficial. - @AlenAbdula That's the sole reason I started using SCSS. The realization of it's full power came later.

IE Conditional Tags in CSS stylesheet?
@robertallen, use the IE conditional tags to add an IE only class to the body. Then you can control styling through your .css file. http://css-tricks.com/snippets/html/add-body-class-just-for-ie/

RWD - Uneven Panels / rows
@iknowdavehouse, ditch the floats and switch to display: inline-block. You'll either have to add HTML comments between the divs, or adjust the font size of the parent element to 0, then reset the fonts within each div. Codepen example: http://…

EMs for media queries and layout

Responsive site - mobile view bug
What @michaeljalmond said..while people frown on !important, that's your easiest solution, because display: hidden is an inline-style created by the js, so just using display: block !important at your media query for large screens will overwrit…

Wordpress: show custom post types, by category
wptuts has a tutorial to change the taxonomies to radio button selections: http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/creative-coding/how-to-use-radio-buttons-with-taxonomies/ I still think taxonomies would be your best approach to this. I always visualize t…

Wordpress: show custom post types, by category
What about creating custom taxonomies for your "shoes" post type? Then you could do http://localhost/outdoor and http://localhost/indoor? I admit, I have only a basic working knowledge of the full power of custom taxonomies because I have…

Supported devices for RWD
@coljung, the Sony Xperia has a WinMo version, and Android version..so this is a perfect example of why it would be better to specify mobile OS over device. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Xperia

Supported devices for RWD
If I was to provide a list it would be by OS &/or Browser and not device and that's a much shorter list. - @Paulie_D +1

TypeKit vs Google Web Fonts
@chrisburton, yes With Typekit, I always set them up for their own subscription. This is because it's less of a hassle to transfer if they ever hire someone in the future to manage their kit. Additionally, I don't want them to have acc…

TypeKit vs Google Web Fonts
@chrisburton, it was less of a question about a proper way to price to a client, and more of a question of how you handle TypeKit for an end user. It's a brand new service to me, and I've noticed you mention it quite a bit, so I wanted you…

Image Shadow and Border Without Second Div?

TypeKit vs Google Web Fonts
@chrisburton, I've been meaning to ask you about this for a little bit. When using TypeKit, how do you bill the client? Do you treat it as them "contributing" to your annual cost for your subscription? Or do you set them up with a sub…

Image Shadow and Border Without Second Div?
Is this possible without an additional DIV wrapping around the image? No, it's not possible (for now). At least, as far as I know, maybe someone has something creative up their sleeve. But I'd say your best bet without extra markup wo…

Bonus points for being a 'Padding-Margin Crusher-Ninja"
@Crssp, giving your tags a display: none; value will leave you with 0 content..aside from that, @TheDoc's screenshot shows that the problem is your ticker is inside a tag, which would make your ticker disappear completely. It could be the…

Bonus points for being a 'Padding-Margin Crusher-Ninja"

Thoughts on design and copy
@CrocoDillon, I agree with @AlenAbdula, from your posts on these forums, you seem to be a bit of a JS guru, and there's not much interactivity in your site to showcase that. Other than that, I like the simplicity your site has. Well done.
