Making CSS Themes
I've started experimenting with building a custom css theme for a future project. The CSS I use for this blog is a simple comprehensive theme from simplecss.org, so I've started deconstructing it to figure out what I need to focus on in order to make my own.
One challenge that I know I'll be facing: my new theme is going to be strictly
black-and-white (I might choose to allow grey shades as well). This means
that I'll have to find alternative visual representations for states that are
normally expressed through colour changes (ex. :hover
).
