And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A List Apart is a great site. I love them and their design philosophy. And their site renders really well on my teensy phone.

CSS boggles my mind. Just so much in there.

Compassionately intolerant

A friend of mine would like a website that looks something like this for her photo and card business.

I've crawled through about 500 templates so far and have not found anything as simple and elegant. Can anyone point me to a likely source? She needs an integrated cart for sales.

How can I change the destination folder of the Movies icon in Leopard's finder?

(When I migrated everything to this computer, I left Movies behind because I was short on disc space. Now I have all that media on an external drive, but I can't figure out how to tell the computer that. When I click on that icon, it tells me it can't find the volume Movies.)

That worked great, Dan. Thanks!

Oh, W3Schools also has a decent CSS reference.

A cool example of steganography.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

My 80 year old mom is still quite active and travels a lot. She'd really like a portable GPS that she could use in her own car but also transfer to rentals. Anyone have suggestions? Keep in mind that she's 80.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I tried my Mom on a TomTom which would announce next turns and street names, but she found it way too confusing and nervous-making. Yes, she was afraid of upsetting the voice....
