30 of the coolest church websites
Maybe you didn’t know but there are amazing church and religious websites out there for you to visit.
I have to say that in europe (where i live) we don’t have such great websites about this topic so it can be a real surprise for other people from the old country.
Inspiration for every web designer.
The Sky Was Blue. A free XHTML portfolio template for you!
FEATURES:
- Built using the 960 grid system
- Featured works (jQuery  slider)
- Filterable portfolio (jQuery)
- Thumbnails with Lightbox effect (jQuery Facebox)
- The thumbnail .psd is included
- Twitter Integration
- Contact Form
- Change the header with another .PNG to have a semitransparent effect

It’s pretty easy to update so you don’t have any specific “readme” file.
Just open the html code and read the comments.
This template is free and you can use it for any private or commercial project without any restrictions.
The only two things i ask are:
- Don’t resell it and don’t link directly the zip file
- Follow the scripts licenses.
The featured works slider and the Facebox effect are released under MIT license.
The filterable portfolio is a free (original) script by Trevor Davis.
The contact form is a free (original) script by Chris Coyier from Css-tricks.com.

13 amazing CSS Frameworks. Which one is your favorite?
Here you a have a collection of cool frameworks to create CSS layouts.
I don’t want to enter into the debate about the use of these frameworks.
So please don’t write comments like “you are totally missing the point, the grids are unuseful…” or “i prefer to use my own hand-code for development” and blablabla…
If you don’t like frameworks, please, just skip this post.
I would like to have a constructive post about the main differences and the most important advantages\disadvantages.
Personally i love the 960 grid system but i like also blueprint and malo.
In general when i use a framework is because i can have a rapid prototype of the final website, because there are easy to remember CSS classes and because i can have a cross-browser object without headaches.
What do you think? Which is your favorite and why?
