   Chris,

   As a former computer instructor, I must say you did a kick-ass job here. And to free-style it the way you did is even more impressive. Anybody who’s done screencasts would know how difficult this is. Fantastic, really.

   And that color key trick in your style sheet was cool, too. Never thought of that.

   I can’t believe this video has no comments either. This is hands down the best dissection of wordpress customization I’ve ever seen.

   Regards

   Chris,

   What software do you use for screencasting? I’d like to give this a try myself.

   Hi Chris,

   Just watched: “CSS-Tricks: Designing for WordPress Part Two of Three”, will need to watch it a second time. Is there a way of getting the style.css that you used in the video? This would help in studying your example.

    Absolutely wonderful series here. Yeah, a little slow, but then again slowing down really helped me take it in more thoroughly – and very good for beginners. I used to create a css layout first and then copy bits of code from another template into my newly created template but i see that this video show a way that is more controllable – resets ALL the CSS.

    Thank you very much for spending your time creating a helpful resource & reference.

    I enjoyed the videos. I am new to WordPress and CSS but your video did an excellent job of explaining the code set up. I did have a problem with extracting the “stark” theme. For some reason, it only extracted 2 files, so I extracted the “naked” theme.
