Wonderful site and idea, good design, maybe too twitter-bootstrappy. Anyway I love it and I've subscribed inmediately.

I have noticed a subtle bug, if you check the rss, the links of the articles link to this:

  http://cssdeck.com/[item-id]/[title]
When the actual url on cssdeck is:

  http://cssdeck.com/item/[item-id]/[title]
Please correct that so that I can happily consume the RSS feed :)

ouch! haha, thanks for pointing out - it's fixed.

Wonderful work! It would be even better if you can add browser compatibility for each item.
[+] ftwinnovations|14 years ago|reply
Absolutely. Came to the comments just to say that.

Also, would be nice if it remembered which "load more" page you had open in a cookie or something so when going "back" after looking at one in more detail, I don't have to click Load More again to get back to where I was.

Fantastic site. Keep up the good work. Definitely bookmarking.

When you create an item it asks for browser compatibility. So i have that data stored in the Database, just need to figure out how to display in a nice way without breaking the design!

Hey that's pretty neat...

I made a cute little animation of a glowing halo... not as fancy as many of the submissions on there - but if you think it appropriate I'll whack it up.

I think it is appropriate. Maybe spice up a bit and add vendor prefixed version of various CSS3 properties and add it to the collection. Good Luck!

Good stuff,

What would be super useful is something that tells you what it looks like on older / other browsers, you've obviously thought about this with the image shots, but many images are missing.

Perhaps some sort of integration with browsershots or even just a text compatibility chart?

[+] binarydreams|14 years ago|reply
I have been thinking quite a bit on this particular area. I'll display some of those info per item very soon. Also some of the items are missing images for IE7 and IE8 only if those versions do not render the creation at all or break them to such an extent that the item is no more usable.

Heh. I clicked the first item. Then I saw a page with a big download button and some code. I thought "hmm, it would be nice to see a live example...". And then I realized that the big download button was the example :)

Overall, I really like this idea.

Thank you SOOOO much for creating this. This is so valuable for me as a developer+designer.

Consider charging for it. I'd gladly pay $5/mo, if you had 10-20 new posts every month

[+] binarydreams|14 years ago|reply
umm, i did'nt have any plans to charge, but now maybe i'll think about it.

I don't see how it's similar -- dribble is about other designers and their creations, revealing nothing about the underlying css/graphics.

If you want to discover a new designer, you go to dribble. If you're a designer yourself, you go to cssdeck to improve your craft :)

I was wondering when something like this would be made. Thanks. Hope lots of people contribute.
[+] DallaRosa|14 years ago|reply
Really nice! I'll be using some of these for sure! Thanks for sharing the incredible work!
[+] cosmez|14 years ago|reply
great work!

small question, where do you check the implementations for the special properties? the ones starting with -webkit -ms -moz, etc.

it must be a pain in the arse to write the same stuff 4 times!

Hey that's really nice. Has a demo and the snippet right there. Great work!
[+] binarydreams|14 years ago|reply
many people wanted to donate (or pay in some form). So i added a donation Paypal email at the bottom most part of the sidebar for now.
