Hola ALA de nuevo!
Hola ALA de nuevo! Today, my second ALA article, CSS Drop Shadows II: Fuzzy Shadows (in which our fearless hero braves the hazards of IE’s transparency failings and returns lambasted yet victorious) has just gone live. This, I assure you, fills me with no small amount of glee.
So, for those of you who hadn’t been here before: Welcome. You may want to poke around the abridged section, and of course, the comic (which is fast becoming a relic of times past… times of myth where I actually got off my ass to draw purty things). I hope you enjoy yourselves.
And the site.
To those who are here everyday: You fucking rock! Thanks people!
I’m currently in the middle of a bunch of changes that may alter the way Overcaffeinated interacts with the outside world. These are still the first baby steps, but you may want to hang around to see what eventually comes out of it. Starting with the (currently rather drab) RSS feeds for the News from the ‘Net here: RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0.

I say… let the angels die and keep the informative CSS articles coming. Nicely done Sergio. Keep em coming!
two articles on ALA and you still say that you are not in the major leagues?
Sergio, I was going to email you and ask if you were going to make some RSS feeds for ‘news around the net’, but you seem to have read my mind. Spooky.
Sergio, you fucking rock, your rocking fuck!
Great work with those articles anyway, and congrats! The writing is per usual OC standard, and I love your attention to detail with the illustrations.
I also like how you’ve altered the way Overcaffeinated interacts with the outside world, so far, at least if we are talking about the boxy things around the posts, the much anticipated news feed, and the Kitta mind parser.
I’m sure you’ve made other, more subliminal changes, carefully crafted to make the Overcaffeinated empire achieve the world dominance our mothers warned us against, and which of course we won’t hear a thing about.
But that’s fine with me because we need a new world order anyway, and even it wasn’t fine I wouldn’t dare object.
Your humble servant,
Lars: The Kitta mind parser is essential to the World Domination scheme© I’ve slowly and carefully set in motion (still waiting for the sharks… and lasers).
Glad you didn’t object. I shall reward you. You’ll be General in command of Australia or some such spot.
Excellent article on CSS dropshadow - you make it too easy!
I must not overuse this technique … I must not overuse this technique …
Very nice article. Still, I am partial to my own technique for making IE show transparent PNGs
Everytime Sergio skips a comic update, an angel cries. Think of the Angels, man. Think of the angles. :(
