(Pixel-locked, meaning all edges fall on an exact pixel boundary, creating the sharpest object possible.)

Experienced Photoshop users will probably already know one or two ways to draw a roundrect. Hopefully after reading this article, they’ll also know a couple more, and which methods produce pixel perfect results.”

We’ve all tried to use a sticky footer one time or another, but they never seem to come out right, do they? Well, the days of a hard to understand CSS-based sticky footer are thankfully over. In just a few simple CSS classes with minimal extra HTML markup, I’ve fashioned a sticky footer that even beginners can get a handle on. It’s been tested in IE 5 and up, Firefox, Safari and Opera.
