After 3 years i finally found the time to update my blog design.
This time rather than using a pre-made template i decided to let my inner designer be free to do what he pleased… Well, the final result could have been worse.

I sticked on the previous theme for the logic and i decided to try out this “material design” way. I actual had fun. I heard “google material design is soul-less and not suited for companies” but i still think that it’s great for small website, applications and apps of course.

You can see the result yourself, the blog is now much more readable, more “interactive” and a little more sexier:

Previous version:

Actual version:

I didn’t dislike the previous design, but i always found it lacking of mobile goodies and i found that pre and code tags were kind-a-cheap and ugly.

Now we have some great and readable pre/code tags! Yeah!

Just for reference: i used a Materialize.css framework, not the your usual mainstream css framework.

Hope you enjoy the new design but i expecially hope that you will find the blog much easier and simpler to read!

Wow! Two years has already passed since i decided to open this blog.
It went better than i expected, i consider this place a small dot on the web, but some people came here and found what they needed and some of them even left a comment and a token of their gratitude.
To all people that came here, expecially to those who found the time to leave a message..

Thank you

I read every comment and every single one made my a little happier 🙂

It’s nice to help people now and then.

Yours sincerely,

I feel like experimenting a bit is no damage on the web. 🙂

You could check them at http://www.darksideofthecss.com

I would discuss about every trick as soon as I’ve got time to write a full article!

Hello folks, i’ve been busy for a while. I’ll introduce a typical concern common between any kind of internet user:

If i’m going to die tomorrow, who will inherit all my web accounts and how they’ll know where to get my passwords?

Ok i’m joking, but i’m an airhead and it means i often forget my passwords, only gmail helps me but i feel one day i’ll need something more reliable than a paper note or some old mail records. So here’s my solution:
