Love this tumblr!

A co-worker and I got the owners of our web agency to invest in our idea to build a new homebrew website. Let me know what you think! by cmicekin Homebrewing

[–]cmicek[S] 1 point2 points ago

Thanks, tell them to upload recipes! The importer is really easy, one-click and done type of thing.

Thanks for the feedback. We've got plans to add imperial-metric unit conversions & settings in the next release.

We would love to integrate with ANY homebrew stores, hopefully we can get enough people using the site to make it worth their while.

Sorry man, chrome frame was a requirement to get this thing out the door in a short timeframe. We wanted to test the waters before spending weeks/months handling older browsers.

We ARE tracking how many people are coming to the site with those older browsers and have plans to give a reduced experience if you don't want to instal chrome frame.

This is the same rationale we use: http://37signals.com/svn/posts/3152-basecamp-via-chrome-frame

Thanks. We spent a lot of time trying to refine the experience.

So, I designed and helped build the site with another guy who was basically the mastermind behind this idea. He pitched it and got buy-in from our bosses to spend a few months fully realizing a concept for a new homebrew community heavily focused on the discovery and creation of recipes.

We're polishing this thing up for another month before heading to the AHA conference in June, so for now we've got:

  • A recipe editor with dynamic calculations and display of OG, FG, IBU, ABV, color, and balance
  • A recipe search that lets you find recipes based on style, specific ingredient, and properties.
  • BeerXML import for your pre-existing recipes. (Export coming soon)
  • A responsive design that fits to your phone, ipad, and desktop

If you've got the time I'd love to hear what you think. We're pretty committed to building this site out and making it fun to use.

Do you using LESS, SASS, or Stylus? What are your impressions? by a_calderin web_design

[–]cmicek 0 points1 point ago

I was anti-pre-processor until I actually used one. SASS/LESS/Stylus are amazing.

Responsive Images: How they Almost Worked and What We Need by leftydesignerin web_design

[–]cmicek 2 points3 points ago

This is basically what the author implemented under the "how responsive images worked" section. But things went wrong and he addressed that under "What went wrong"

  • Desktop browsers would still download a redundant mobile image
  • Modern browsers have implemented a 'prefetch' ability

I use InDesign as well. I'm really glad that I now have a well-written article to point to whenever someone thinks its nuts.

Coding App - An online web developing tool [Preview] by Kriemin web_design

Not as a primary method, but with a decent autocomplete feature I could see using it on the iPad in certain situations. Regardless of the utility it's a cool project/idea.

How do you write your CSS? by SonicDissonancein web_design

[–]cmicek 0 points1 point ago

Imagine using CSS gradients with the full set of vendor prefixes... single-line CSS gets ugly fast.

Nesting elements in SASS makes it much harder to debug in the future. Love everything else about it though.

iPhone icons made completely in CSS. Woah. by realfacts2in web_design

[–]cmicek -3 points-2 points ago

Very cool. The HTML seems pretty semantic as well. I love seeing these projects that push the limits of CSS

Would this be possible to pull off with css3? by anothercreativenamein web_design

[–]cmicek 0 points1 point ago

Totally possible with CSS transforms, you can even do the shadows (unlike with css-triangles).

Check it out: http://jsfiddle.net/U69nM/32/

See http://html5please.us/ for compatibility information AND fallback options

Thanks to people like you I don't have to do the legwork and code these animations myself. Kudos!

I imagine the advertisers didn't pay for mobile/tablet ad space.

Is there a way to send a custom list of posts? by MetacomCreativein Wordpress

[–]cmicek 2 points3 points ago

This can be done pretty easily. Say you've got a link such as:

You can pull 'p' out of the query string using $_GET

And then use query_posts() to restrict your main loop

Awesome, I wouldn't use it regularly but it looks like a fun little project.
