Simple Rounded Corners
with a CSS Sprite
Optimizing a site for speed is one of the most important aspects of web development and CSS sprites are a great way to do just that. Check out Google for a great example of a sprite.

Creating a Mouseover Fade Effect with jQuery
My last little jQuery tutorial was an alternative to using CSS to create an image change on a mouseover. Now I want to take that one step further and add a fade effect.

There are tons of possibilities in regards to jQuery’s animate function, but for this tutorial, I’m going to keep it simple by just using it to do one thing.

I had someone request making my Magazine Basic theme function with nested comments and that started me on researching just how this new WP feature worked. It ended up being a harder nut to crack than I first thought, but crack it I did (though I probably spend way too much time on it).

WordPress widgets are great. They have tons of amazing functions and are extremely easy to use. The only problem is that not all themes support them. But that is a problem that is very easily solved with just a little bit of coding.
