i personally use
to minify my code but to each their own.
[quote=sekasi;2339004]I got tired of writing tutorials in forums and started a blog the other day. The color scheme is close to my portfolio site, but it’s my first real “pure” css site.
See what you guys think. I don’t mind getting slammed, but please be constructive about it 
(ie: this sucks BECAUSE instead of this sucks.
)
Thanks.

Great job bro…
Oh it’s also worth mentioning that if you grab the min version from the jquery/google download even though it may say like 94kb download, with server compression it’ll be something like 24kb things like that.
like on our sites we turn on all browser compressions, gzip and minify our js and css. in our js we have the jquery library a number of other scripts which all individually total something like 110k physical file size, but the server compresses it down to 12kb.
Thanks digi and everyone else.
Simplistik, I Was wondering about that… the minifyer, doesn’t that add a lot of stress to a server (say, if it’s a heavy traffic one) ? Just curious.

Nope, what you need to do is make sure you’re using the caching option 
Nice job. It definitely looks fine. Is this your first WP custom theme?
A few things though. Using shorthand properties in your css file will reduce its size and will make it easier to read/update. And I saw that you use a conditional css only for a margin attribute. I’d suggest removing that, take the strain[COLOR=DimGray](which isn’t very big, but why not avoid it altogether?)[/COLOR] off the browser and use any other css attribute to achieve your desired result.
Hey ditt0, thanks. Yeah it’s my first WP site and theme, but in all honesty it’s just a css site with some WP tags in it 
could you explain “shorthand properties” ? I assume that means to use
border 0px 0px 0px 0px;
instead of
border-left
et cetera but I actually did that mostly for readability for myself. Whereas it does increase the filesize… so be it:P (if that’s not what you meant, then sorry x)))
As for the conditional statement, it’s a IE fix… so kinda keep it there.
Thanks!
yea shorthand would be something like
background: #fff url('/images/myimage.jpg') repeat-x 0 0;
border: 1px #ddd solid;
font: normal 1em/1.5em Verdana;
etc
