Wilson Miner has a great resource on A List Apart: Setting Type on the Web to a Baseline Grid.
Over the last year or so, there’s been a lot of talk about grid systems and using column grids for website layouts. Mark gave us a lesson plan, Khoi gave us a case study and Cameron gave us a toolkit. The message is clear: we have the browser support, the know-how, and the tools we need to create consistent multi-column grid layouts on the web.
We can apply the same principles of proportion and balance to the type within those columns by borrowing another technique from our print brethren: the baseline grid.
Wilson is part of the Django team. The more I read about Django and the more I see it in action, the more I am thinking about dumping WordPress and rolling my own Django-based site.
After playing around for weeks, I am committing to redesigning all of ecrosstexas.com, beginning with the texas blog. As of this moment, no CSS file will load while I hammer out a few more changes the XHTML.
Please hammer me on getting the CSS done in a timely manner, I do not want to look at my site unstyled for long.
