I really like this guys videos. It looks like he relies heavily on after effects, and makes the effects the central part of the video. Kind of a throwback to the 80′s but with more modern computer generated effects. My only real criticism is on both artists and their heavy reliance on auto tune. But then again, aside from Nelly Furtdado, I can’t think of too many artists who don’t use auto-tune.
CSS can be so frustrating sometimes! Took me forever to hunt down some hidden spacing in my divs, was a result of IE overriding my specified <hr /> height. Once i figured out IE and my <hr /> tag was the culprit a quick google search gave me a couple solutions.
IE doesn’t seem to allow <hr /> elements to be sized smaller than the font size. Nothing I tried worked, so now i just use a bottom or top border of 1px on my divs. This was suggested to have the most cross browser consistency. I’ve sworn them (hr tags) off altogether.
So I just installed WordPress. Still trying to find my way around. Clearly the site is in its infancy, but I’m working hard on the design. Web programming can be very frustrating… with browser differences, and just rendering differences in strict mode for either IE and Firefox. I’ve basically been forced to move away from tables to the new div paradigm. (good bye tables, you will be missed) Learning how to do equivelent things with div’s is a little frustrating, but at least my pages will be standards compliant, as well as rendering properly in IE7 and Firefox.
