Does it seem like we are still in the dark ages of web design and layout? Lately, I've been excited that I can get away with using alpha transparent PNGs on my sites, even though we've had the technology for the last decade.
From the moment I began to learn HTML, I've been busting my head against this 4x4 beam standing here. The beam is bloody, but I'm still struggling with things that should be ultra-simple.
We have a variety of prior work we can use to investigate better layout strategies, namely from the print design/layout world and from the programming world, where we have layout managers a-plenty. It really is frustrating.
