Good afternoon, Fellow Coders!
I took on this quick challenge to work on some of my CSS organization skills and trying out a new (to me) system called GPS (Global, Page, Section). Well, what I thought would be quick, actually took me longer than I planned because I ran in to a couple of problems. Maybe one of my peers out there has the solution? You know I love getting feedback from you all. Here were the issues:
- I could not think of a logical way to manipulate the two graphics used for the background. I tried rotations and translations, etc. But I was always at a loss because I don't know where the designers started with the designs (centered, left, right, default location?) In the end I just settled on putting their position as absolute and using my eyes to place them manually with "top" and "left."
- The second issue was when I tried to publish the site on GitHub. While everything looked great in development, once I got it on GitHub, all the formatting went crazy and those pesky background graphics showed up as block-element graphics (at 900+ pixels each). Needless to say, it didn't look like a social media profile card - more like a profile tome. :)
Anyway, if you have any suggestions, please send them my way. I really do appreciate you all. Thank you for taking the time to glance at my work.
Best wishes!
Jeff
