"Sexy CSS"

The article on Smart and Sexy CSS was, interesting...

Some parts of the author's point I understood, while others were a little tougher for me to grasp. I understand the need that he points out for clean CSS code as opposed to 'sexy' CSS code, but it is still difficult for me to understand how CSS code could be sexy. (I obviously don't mean sexy in the traditional sense, but nonetheless..)

I agree with the author's point about always being specific, particularly when it comes to choosing and labeling colors. Given what I know about CSS (which is minimal) I do believe that I understood this rather important point. From what we have done with CSS on Dreamweaver in class, I have reailzed that there are many different colors (and shades of colors), each with its own different, and confusing name. So this point made sense to me.

I also understood the importance of avoiding 'sexy' CSS when working with co-workers or clients. The coding would most definitely be to have clean and understandable.

While I believe that I understood the overall point of this article, I don't really feel as if it applies to me. I'm really not all that concerned with making my CSS sexy. CSS that actually works is my first goal.
