Found this site: phpclasses.org through web-graphics.com – which in itself is an awesome site with lots of web design goodies and info.
UPDATE: I'm just totally in love with that web-graphics blog. FYI – I found this link on their site, which will let you scale text on sites that have set pixels for their fonts in their CSS stylesheet… so all you people complaining about my design, and that the font is too small, whatever… go get that and leave me alone! ROFL!!

I really like the look and function of rollovers, but sometimes I don't want to use javascript and I don't want to deal with images. So when I found css/edge's all css popups a while back, I really looked forward to finding a use for them. No javascript, just pure CSS.
After a question in the Movable Type forums, someone was looking for a calendar where you could easily see the titles of the entries on that day. So I put together codes and an example at Blogstyles in case it was useful to other people too.
It uses absolute positioning and a display:none in the css to show nothing when you aren't hovering, and then on hover, it positions the text directly below the calendar. I think its terrific! If anybody else has ideas for implementing this, I'd be happy to work with you to get it going

Was reminded of this script by looking through my referrers… had forgotten about it. Wanted to post it here so I don't lose it again.
The following script is really designed for a photo log… it will set up your page (MT specific) so that it automatically generates a table with 3 columns (You can actually customize it to be however number of columns you choose…

I'm in the progress of creating a "web design" gallery: screenshots of sites I happen to stumble across whose design (I think) is kinda cool. The purpose of this site is to collect a variety of types of designs, for inspiration.
The site is VERY MUCH in progress… There's a number of things I still want to add. And while for it's own design, I'd like to be as simple and played down as possible (so you can just focus on the screenshots), it's not yet where I want it to be… I just threw it together this morning.

I came across this awesome article that shows how to add some javascript to your site that will allow users to "clip" or bookmark particular entries at your site for easy reference later on. If you want to have a look, I've implimented this in most sections of my site.

Update 8/24: Ok – so the masses have spoken. Soon to be implemented:
Collapse/Expand more entries, and shortcut links for bold/italic/links in comments.
Well, we talk about a lot of bells and whistles you can add to your blog, but only a few actually make it into THIS blog. (More because there just isn't enough hours in the day) So here's your chance to "request a feature"…
I put up a poll on the sidebar (butterfly skin only at the moment – goddesses, if you could incorporate it into your designs as well, that'd be cool… but I didn't want to hack around in them…). Cast your vote for what feature/features you'd like to see… I only listed a few up there, if there's something you want that's not on that list, leave it in the comments in this post… I may or may not add it to the "voting booth"…
Thanks!
(if you voted when I first posted this, I did something and completely wrecked the original poll… had to upload new files and everything. I never said I was a "real scriptygoddess" LOL!) Feel free to vote again…
