Recently I faced the problem of either creating my own 16 square pixel icons, or use others. I started looking into how other services have solved the problem, and I realized after looking at Socialthing! that the best solution is also the most obvious and simple one: Just import the site’s own favicons! Here are… Continue reading Get perfect Web 2.0 16x16px icons quickly!

IE6 & IE7 Doctypes problem
All browsers have their flaws, that’s for sure. But sometimes you see pure stupidity, and then it might be worth writing something about it. If a web page doesn’t have a doctype, it usually means that the page is either very old or created by someone that don’t care or doesn’t know anything about doctypes.… Continue reading IE6 & IE7 Doctypes problem
Annoying Firefox+Firebug anchor bug
UPDATE 2008-03-20: This bug is easily resolved by upgrading to the latest Beta version of Firebug (currently 1.1). Thanks to PatternHead! I’ve experienced this bug for quite a while now, and it is really annoying. Basically you can’t inspect an anchor in Firebug, and there’s no way around it. Today I had enough and decided… Continue reading Annoying Firefox+Firebug anchor bug
Back in Boulder!
For those that haven’t heard, the swedish TechStar is now back in Boulder for 3 months. I’m working hard at our new (not very shiny but OK offices) on 1980 8th St, feel free to drop by. It’s good to be back.

As you probably know I’m a cofounder and User Interface Designer at Intense Debate. We just released a big update to our revolutionary commenting system, that’s basically a total makeover graphically. I think you can tell that I’m excited!

New year, more work
It’s amazing how some things change rapidly and how others.. Well, doesn’t change at all. It’s 2008 and I still work as hard as ever. One thing’s for certain: This is the year.

border: 1px solid; magic!
I don’t know if this is common knowledge among webdesigners, but this was all new for me. If you don’t select a color for a border, just say “border: 1px solid;” (for example) it will inherit the color of the current object. I’ve checked this in Firefox 2 and Opera 9, and it really works… Continue reading border: 1px solid; magic!
Flash Movie Controls – Play/Pause Button
I’m not very experienced in Flash. I can do basic movies with tweens, some playback buttons and maybe one or two animations, but that’s pretty much it. For a recent project however, I had to do a pause button. Now this might seem like an easy task, but it isnt. A pause button must both… Continue reading Flash Movie Controls – Play/Pause Button
