    I went to the Borders bookstore over in Baileys Crossroads this evening and picked up a copy of “Practical Web Design” magazine from England. As I’m thumbing through it on page 32, I spot an article about “The Best CSS Sites – Six Great sources for design and coding inspiration”. Third on the list with the following other websites: Stylegala.com, CSSZenGarden.com, ThinkVitamin.com, http://www.dezwozhere.com/links.html, and CSSRemix.com, is http://www.CSSBeauty.com by our very own Alex Giron (website screenshot included).

    I hope his bandwidth bill is up-to-date since this magazine is distributed in Europe and the United States. I get mine at either Borders or Barnes and Noble in the Alexandria or Arlington area.

    thanks,

    jfc iii

    p.s. - Here is the link to see the cover in case you want to go get yourself a few copies ($15 U.S.) - http://www.pwdmag.co.uk/wp-content/PWD36_cover.jpg.

    I thought the name of that magazine looks familiar, it's the American-ized version of the fabulous .Net Magazine. At least, that's my understanding of it. Paul Boag is in the process of doing (or already does) a podcast for .Net. He's got a much more thorough explanation of it all on his blog:

    Man I wish they'd send me an email when they do that. I had no idea!!! thanks for the heads up. I am in Russia for most of December and January. I will make sure I get a copy when I get back, if not, I'll have to bother you just to see it :D.

    I picked up a copy as usual this month, I can bring it to next months Refresh-DC meeting (Feb 2007).

    If you would like, I can see if I can find another copy ($16 or so with tax) and pick it up for you?

    thanks,

    jacob I did get the copy, again thanks for the heads up... I've also been informed that cssbeauty made it to the actual .net magazine in last year's august edition.

    http://www.zinio.com/express?issue=152344432&flipEnabled=false&flipNotSupported=true

    hit next 6 or 7 times, you will see a screenshot of cssbeauty, on an article John Oxton wrote....

    God I wish they'd let people know, that would have been a nice birthday gift.

    I wonder how I can get that august edition...

    Sigh

    That is awesome Alex -- congrats!

    Good luck getting a copy of that issue -- what is there something that actually isn't available on eBay?

    "Whatever 'it' is" ... as long as it isn't what you really want.

    Alex,

    Your welcome glad I could help.

    What about the people that went to Refresh 06 (Cindy, Jason, etc) asking Paul Boag. He does a podcast every month for the Practical Web Design magazine, which has the same publisher as the .NET magazine.

    thanks,

    jfc iii
