New ‘n’ Mystery



:
If I can get a working demo of VBulletin then the mod options shouldn't be too much trouble.

I've spent a bit of time playing with Foundation. Here's a couple points:
  • I like having separate classes for a mobile grid and a desktop grid.
  • It still frustrates me how much code goes into the default - I think I might try isolating the CSS for the grid and building with it.
  • The grid can get rather ... Finicky if you don't handle the code just right. I noticed quite a few spots where using a certain HTML element would conflict with the grid styles for no apparent reason.
I’m currently working on building up a version of the 1140px Grid System. It’s open source and hasn’t been updated in a while, but I’ve been able to add mobile-first functionality and a mobile-only grid with relative ease. It’s a lot lighter than Foundation and has all the functionality that I’m looking for, which is nice.

I also came across this article on responsive typography which got me thinking about where the best place to start with layout designs would be.

I’m of the opinion that the most important element of a forum is the user posts, so this is a logical place to start. There’s already been discussion on that, so – hooray?
