Re: Bootstrap 3

Man, I feel weird. I used BS2 temporarily, but then stripped it out for a straight reset and grid system. Old habits die hard, I guess, and what I Want from a UI doesn't always match Bootstraps ideas... I'll give this another shot for my startup prototype, but I have a feeling the same will happen.

Is anyone else like that, or am I now old-school at the ripe age of 22?

Maybe you aren't the target audience? Maybe you need something else entirely?

Possibly, but others I respect use it for the same things I tried too. Possibly an issue with me, rather than the framework, of course.

wtf is wrong with the button ... srsly. http://s14.directupload.net/images/130729/kassm787.png

I'm on Firefox 22, and the same thing happens here. Mouse over download button, click it, download pop-up appears, click cancel on the download, button disappears. It re-appears upon giving focus back to the page.

Personally, I think the "Download Bootstrap" button is too ambiguous. Why is the default color the same as the background color, it is just confusing and ugly

Earlier quoted context omitted.

firefox actual version ... this happens after clicking the button!

Portuguese speaker? "Current" version is the English word I believe you meant to use.

(We) Spanish speakers also tend to make the same mistake.

Which reset and grid system do you use? I have the same experience, and I end up un-checking every option except one or two on bootstrap's customization page for most of my projects.

I don't think I get the new grid system. .col-12 .col-lg-8 What's going on here? If I were to guess, I'm assuming it's going to be 12 columns if its a mobile, 8 if a tablet or a desktop. In what situation would that be useful? It looks like you'd end up with some pretty complicated mark-up quickly like that.

I agree with jvzr, I think it goes hand in hand with a true "mobile first" design.

Most likely, you want to use the full width for your most important stuff going on in your site, and then as the screen gets bigger, maybe you include some extra stuff
