Though I haven't tried any of the frameworks in "real life", I did look through BlueprintCSS & Tina used it to implement the current Refresh design. That's exactly why I stick with the universal reset - virtually all CSS based designed I've done, I've had to do some styling to form elements so I end up resetting them in way or another. At the end of the day it's personal preference. Hi Sheri,

Glad you liked the presentation. Though I haven’t tried any of the frameworks in “real life”, I did look through BlueprintCSS & Tina used it to implement the current Refresh design.

That’s exactly why I stick with the universal reset - virtually all CSS based designed I’ve done, I’ve had to do some styling to form elements so I end up resetting them in way or another. At the end of the day it’s personal preference.

Have you reviewed any css frameworks such as <a href="http://code.google.com/p/blueprintcss/" rel="nofollow">BlueprintCSS</a>, <a href="http://www.yaml.de/en/" rel="nofollow">YAML</a>, and <a href="http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/grids/" rel="nofollow">YUI CSS Grids</a>? I saw that <a href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2007/05/01/reset-reloaded/#comment-145755" rel="nofollow">you commented on Eric Meyer's reset reloaded</a>. You said you would stick with the universal reset, but you didn't say why. Does it just work better for you to reset all (even textarea and input)? I think it's interesting that Eric's reset is a variation based on the Yahoo reset.css. I like the idea of using css frameworks as a starting point for building your own.
