Wohoo I can sleep well again. Looking pretty good Tiffany!
Like what do you actually mean?
Maybe a public forum wasn't the best place for a comment meant specifically for the author. I'm the person who criticized the .

#32If this site was made by a male you wouldn't even see it on the front page of HN. (=ｘェｘ=)
I disagree. Franky, I think males would tend not to submit posts like this to HN, which is their loss. That she is female is not why this post was upvoted, it was upvoted because it was deemed to be of interest to the community.

#33Well, I made my first site in those days too and I know how you feel! It's really a joy when you make your first one and I know the pain that you feel when you are at the beginning!

#35I highly recommend you check out Bootstrap[0], especially since their recently released version is mobile first. [0] http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/
No, please don't. This is about learning. Going through evolution of design from the ground up. Getting that joy that only comes when you do View Source and every single line is written by you.
yes please! It's so good to modify and adapt bootstrap on your website and read good styled css!

Because people voted for it. Seriously, what kind of explanation are you looking for?
It's a short chronicle of trial and error and growth, which is certainly consistent with the hacker ethos. And it's on a technical situation which undoubtedly many of us have been in.
I really don't understand why people feel the need to leave comments like this. If you didn't find it interesting, don't upvote it. Not everything on here needs to suit your definition of worthy.

#37If I were an employer, I would be more impressed with the way the author responded to feedback/criticism and was able to improve her site on future iterations more so than I'd be impressed with the site itself (although it looks great).
I immediately thought that, too. I've worked with junior developers who, instead of learning from their mistakes, were defensive in code reviews and never took time to learn from their mistakes.
I've worked with all levels of developers who do that.

#38I don't understand the problem with the tag. It does the job and even though its deprecated its a long way away from being unsupported.
"The issue is not that it is "bad". It a matter of separation of concerns. This tag is intended to be used for presentation only. It has no other semantic meaning. Since the move is to have presentation handled by CSS and HTML should only be used for semantic markup, the tag has been deprecated." http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4873491/what-is-so-bad-ab...
In practice and are only used for presentation.

#39I absolutely love that post. It shows what we forget. I love the naive view on web design. The end products works good enough.

I recently got to learning CSS, HTML and launched my own website using bootstrap that I host at home on a rinky dink Thinkpad X40. Would anyone be interested in seeing that? I'm a male though, so probably not huh? Also running an instance of gitlab, wordpress, owncloud and I had no prior knowledge of how apache worked about a month and a half ago.
cool story, bro!
