CSS Off Update
October 11th, 2007
I was away from my computer most of the day and upon returning to my desk I found out that I won the latest round of the CSS Off!
As I have said before, I had a great time participating in the contest. The pressure of the deadline coupled with the challenge presented by the design made this a lot of fun. Everyone should participate at least once, if for no other reason than the excellent feedback you receive from the judges as they will help you recognize your weakness and improve your skills as a result.
Thanks to everyone involved with the CSS Off. The news was a surprise and really made my day!
CSS, Design

Nice! I’m really hoping to find the time to enter the next one.
It looks like it’d be fun up until the point where you’ve invested too much time to quit, and then you start pulling your hair out (coughIE6cough).

I am a little late to the party, but congrats! I know you worked hard and focused on the little details - and it payed off. Very nice work.

@Bridget - Thanks!
@Nate - Thanks, man! Yeah, it was a bit rough at the end. Spent a lot of time trying to integrate the microformats. I’m glad I did even though it cost me a bit of time for cross browser testing.
