This recipe is created to help you better control your gallery displays. The topic of galleries have always been an interesting subject in the Drupal world. There are always many factors about what a gallery actually is as well as how you should make one for your site. Because Drupal is so flexible, there are obviously many solutions.

This solution that I am going to propose is based on my own experiments with various galleries. This set up will give you a lot of flexibility as well as a lot of control.Read more

On the weekend of January 14, 2011, a group of local professionals and students specializing in web and interactive technologies gathered together in a lecture hall at the IUPUI School of Informatics.

The purpose of this recipe is to turn over a WYSIWYG editor that the client will understand better. They will be able to visually see the different header and block styles before they select them. They will also see the styles applied within the WYSIWYG editor before they save their content.

There are a lot of changes to follow, which is why we have created this recipe. We try to be as systematic as possible when implementing this so more time is focused on the custom styles rather than the setup.

Designers spend a lot of time picking out the perfect fonts for their designs. When those fonts are replaced with web-safe fonts, it can discourage the designer, because the final website doesn't look as clean or stylish as their initial mockup. It is for these reasons that dynamic font replacement techniques have become so popular. But if you aren't familiar with your options, you may find that you are working with unnecessary restrictions. Read more

Recently we had a client request the control of how the scrollbars display in the content of their website. At first, remembering back in some old school styling days, I thought we could just use CSS to control it. After that I figured there would be some jQuery that could do the trick. What I found was that this feature is more complicated than I first expected. Read more
