CSS3

My hat off to all CSS3.info readers.

My name is Mikolaj Sitek , but everybody knows me as Jalokim, (its just so much simpler isn’t it?). Some folks may know me, especially those from forumotion.com, cheers all :P. I am a young (20 yo)  freelance web designer and somewhat of a developer from Poland. Web design  became my new passion 3 years ago , earlier I was just a graphics artist and fiddling about in HTML and CSS.

Hiya to all CSS3.info readers

I’d like to introduce myself in this time of CSS3 excitement and changes here at CSS3.info. Some of you may already know me under the nom de plume of SuzyUK from the CSS Forum at WebmasterWorld. My ‘name ‘has always confused people as I registered on t’internet in the days ‘ASL’ pests and my previous nicknames never even gave away my gender.

To make it easy, my name is Claire ‘Suzy’ Campbell, Suzy really is my middle name. In my real life I answer to both Claire or Suzy, and on the Web I answer to both too though mostly it’s Suzy. To try and make it easy I’m also a recent twitter convert so I combined them both – you can find me on @ClaireSuzy . I’m Scottish, from the Doric Speaking region so sometimes native ‘wee’ words might crop up in my speech.

Boys and girls, dear readers, read this article I wrote for an SEO contest, and help me create as much buzz about it as possible. If you help me win the SEO scholarship contest I wrote this for, I can build even more great sites for your entertainment :). So read all about how to run your sites like you’d run a pub.

Hello, I’m the third member of the new CSS3.info team. My name’s Peter Gasston and I’ve been working as a web developer for six years, currently as Creative Developer for a design agency in London (I would provide a link to their site but I’m still rebuilding it). I’m a passionate advocate of web standards and my dream would be to see either Internet Explorer embracing standards, or everyone else embracing a different browser.

I write for a number of blogs on a number of subjects; my most relevant would be my geek blog, where I get to talk about all the stuff I like that’s not necessarily mainstream. Like many projects of mine, it’s in constant development.

I’m excited about the new features of CSS3 because they might finally help us to get rid of ‘tag soup’ in our code; no more four-layer nested divs to create curves, for example, and many less ids and classes required to hook our CSS to. My enthusiasm is only slightly dampened by the fact that it will be many years before we reach that stage.

Im the second blogger/author to be added to css3.info and I’m extremely excited. I have become much more involved with CSS and Web Standards based design over the past year, then I ever thought I would be. I dove head first into a new project that started in October ’05 at dLife.com where we converted dLife.com from a regular table driven website supported by a shoddy CMS called OpenCMS, to a more agile ruby based backend with a css-based front-end design.

I would say at this point, dLife.com is 50-60% of being complete, but there is so much more to learn. The site is about 5,000+ pages, so there is still much to be done to get this site really cranking. My team and I are also learning ruby on rails, which is still a very new technology which nobody knows quite where it will go.

At the same time, I hope I can help other web designers/developers learn more about whats to come for CSS3. Joost and I are very excited to put together a great resource dedicated to CSS3.
