When I tried to find and learn CSS I was always confused, even with the tutorial. Finally, you made it simple where I can wrap my head around what CSS is! Thank you very much!

Cool video I was confused with CSS for the longest time. Now that you have explained it and show how it works I better understand it.

Thank You
PS I've been subscribed to your channel for over a year now and have not missed a show.

This video is very informative about CSS. Although I am pretty good at website designing and programming, I found new ways and shortcuts in CSS programming from this video. Centralized CSS programming is more efficient and makes website load faster, and I am going to employ this programming method from now and on. Thank you Gigafide for making these videos for us!

@Grassyfrog HTML5 isn't standard yet. Until then, whenever you're teaching someone the basics of making a website, you start with HTML/CSS. Tossing HTML5 in this mix would make it more confusing and complicated for beginners. I'm not sure why leaving it out would bother you...

Thank you so much, I've just recently started learning html and CSS, HTML was pretty easy to understand but CSS was a bit hard. This video made it so much clearer to me. I can finally impress my IT teacher :D Thanks!!

keep up the exceptional work Gigafide, I've been following you for about 2.5 years now... Sorry the mini series wasn't as successful as you hoped.

Thanks, and great series you got there!

This video is more informative than my 3 month html/css class I took.

XHTML and HTML4 are virtually the same, but XHTML forces you to use more closing tags where you wouldn't normally have to. You also can't nest closing tags, ex:
-h1-Hi-h2-bye-/h1--/h2-
see how the closing tags are all messed up?
HTML5 just adds new feature.

i like your newer videos with the cool animation and stuff, but what program do you use to make all these animation? if expensive, plz tell me a free one.

[jawnkrein]

this is a great tutorial. must say it feels it would be complicated for a beginner, but because i have some experience it seemed to make sense to me. maybe explain a little more in-depth on the next one? i also didn't see the first video because i'm lazy so that might clarify things that others may not have known, not sure. thanks for the tutorial either way!

[MatthewEmillio]

[Carnalismo]

Btw, thanks a lot for your tutorials!!

I have another question. You know when you increase and decrees the size of you window to view your websites. I have noticed that every time you decrease your window size you texts adjust it self. When I go to youtube I noticed that the text doesn't adjust itself and the boxes don't get to squished. How do you do this exactly?
