    Photoshop for type

    Your problem could be a number of things. First, at what quality level are you saving the jpg? Make sure you're using the "Save for Web..." option to output jpg, and don't set the quality too low. Second, IIRC, the standard dpi for web graphics is 96, so you may need to bump it up. Third, does...

    Why doesn't my website render correctly on Internet Explorer 8?

    Gentlemen, I think we're all missing the point. If the browser doesn't refuse to render the HTML, it must be good enough, amiright? :rolleyes:

    Why doesn't my website render correctly on Internet Explorer 8?

    You keep mentioning faster, easier, simpler. You forgot to mention wrong, incorrect, not according to spec. http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/lists.html#h-10.2 <li> are required in a list for list items. Web coding is an exercise in meeting standards. You don't just make up your own rules...

    Difference between web font & graphic font?

    Um. No. Web fonts are fonts embedded using @font-face. Haven't heard of "graphic" fonts, but I'm guessing you mean like icon fonts. Windows has a few installed already, like Wingdings, but you can make your own with any of the several online tools out there.

    File permissions on the server.

    Can you tell me something about this?

    File permissions are probably restricted. Try going thru FTP, downloading, editing and reupload.

    Should I Study Java Script

    Another +1 for Sublime. I can't stand DW myself. It's the gateway drug for crap like Wix.

    General Question About a News Site

    Ooooh. That sounds artsy. ;) Seriously, though. Are you just trying to do what Google News does? If so, I think you'll find a really steep barrier to entry on that market. News aggregators aren't exactly a new thing.

    Local Steakhouse

    The music is annoying, but I kinda like the "sizzle" sound when the animation first loads. Makes me hungry, because I imagine slapping a giant slab of dead cow on a hot grill. I agree with Phreadee, though. It's no fun to trash a site when that's what we're supposed to do. It's too easy...

    Can you tell me something about this?

    Backed by a team of professional, paid customer support personnel... I don't use BC myself, but there are certain perks to using paid software. WP has a great community, but there's no one you can just call and get a solution to a problem on the spot.

    Why doesn't my website render correctly on Internet Explorer 8?

    Not completely. Current versions of IE will use their own JS rendering engine no matter what version you set it to in F12. If you're just testing a layout, it's fine, but any more than that, and you're not getting a complete test.

    Why doesn't my website render correctly on Internet Explorer 8?

    I have to pose a better question: Have you looked at your analytics or site logs to see if it's even worth wasting your time on? Most of the time, IE8 and below visitors are so rare it doesn't matter.

    Can't center or add top margin to webpage

    Because he's using a technology that was created in 2002 that was out of date when it was released.

    Looking for critique!

    It's in the "Website Reviews" section, and she's asking for a critique on the her site. What more information do you need? Regarding the site, it's "cute". The major problem is: what do you do? what's the site for? who are you? what incentive to I have to stay on your site? There is...

    Best Way to Have a What's New Section On A Website

    Get the ID of the element you want at the top of the page, and add it to the end of the URL with a # in front of it, like so: http://etangins.blogger.com#header

    Give me some advice on how to increase social activity for my blog

    Put on pants and shoes, stand up from your desk, and go find clients. Walk up to real people who own real businesses and hand them a real, paper business card. Then, proceed to convince them that you are a better option than whatever they're using now. It won't drive 1,000 visitors per day, but...

    MP4 video on web site

    <video src="video.m4v" controls="controls"></video> Though, I'd caution that m4v is probably not going to work very well for the video format.
