Teaching myself about DIV and SPAN
I’m so far behind on CSS style page design, but my excuse is: I don’t do this for a living. So here are a few notes on things that I’ve been reading about the last few on CSS and DIV/SPAN tags.

Project Diary: XTools [1]

Yup, you guessed it
New theme. In less than 2 weeks I’ve revamped an existing theme in to something that I like a little better. I’ll probably run with this one for a while. Working on testing out the upgrade on my dev site for any bugs before upgrading and then I start with custom code.
