Trellian free Dreamweaver template released - XHTML and CSS

Posted on June 28th, 2008 by Ryan

Trellian is our new free Dreamweaver template and it comes with sweet CSS navigation courtesy of CSS Menu Writer.  We wanted to showcase a few of our favorite Dreamweaver extensions, so we also generated the XHTML  page structure in CSS Sculptor.  The template is tableless and includes a multi-level CSS menu that can be easily customized in the code.

If you do your own website design, we highly recommend both CSS Sculptor and CSS Menu Writer.  It’s truly amazing how quickly you can generate standards compliant site structure and navigation.  What used to take the most time in developing a new site has been reduced to a matter of minutes so we can focus more on the eye candy and content.

You can preview the Trellian template or download it from our Dreamweaver templates page.

CSS Menu Writer - Dreamweaver CSS Menu Extension

Posted on May 12th, 2008 by Ryan

We’ve been hearing a lot about CSS Menu Writer over the last couple of months and it’s finally here. Just released by WebAssist, CSS Menu Writer takes the hassle out of creating CSS menu navigation in Dreamweaver.

Menu Writer is a Dreamweaver extension that creates horizontal or vertical website menus through a tabbed wizard interface, similar to CSS Sculptor. As with Sculptor, Eric Meyer had a hand in making sure Menu Writer menus are standards compliant and valid CSS and HTML. The extension installs just like any other in Dreamweaver, and is accessible through the WebAssist toolbar. Full Story →

I doubt there’s many designers out there who haven’t implemented CSS to some extent in their designs, but harnessing the true power of CSS takes time and effort to learn. I come across CSS tutorials and tips sites all the time, and thought it would be worth the time to compile a list of other sites into a single post.  It’s primarily for my own reference, but if anyone else finds it useful, even better.
