I would love to have CSS Loaf added to the list, as it brings together designs from 35 other showcases so that you don’t have to check multiple sites each day! It also features large screenshots so that each design is visible; no need to strain your eyes on tiny thumbnails!

based on amount of visitors (or what i’ve worked out from my google analytics after being featured on all these sites) , it should go cssmania, then cssvault, then css drive, then css elite, then the rest.

css beauty hasn’t been updated in months, and noone bothers with that one anymore.

QUICK TIP

Chrome is Crashable

The so called un-crashabale browser IS crashable. No, I’m not talking about 1 tab, not a process, or even the about:crash Easter egg. Without even needing to press enter, or click GO, just type :%. No period. Just a colon, and percent sign. EVERYTHING crashes. Make sure you aren’t doing important stuff.

Back Button To Big?

If you using Mozilla Firefox, you might not be liking that new, unusual over sized back button. While keeping other icons at a nice, easy to navigate size, just go to Customize on the bar, and select “Use Small Icons”.

FireFTP

A lot of people use applications to update their websites via F T P. However, they tend to be bogged down with all sorts of tools which the majority of people don’t need.

FireFTP is a great addon for Firefox which allows you to FTP direct from the browser, quickly and easily, and you can create folders and change permissions with ease.

Remove border from links

Have you ever noticed them dotted lines around links when you click them in Firefox? To get rid of them simply add the following CSS:

a:active, a:focus {
outline:none;
-moz-outline-style:none;
}
