I briefly review a couple of “best Picture” Oscar nominees: http://www.breathingfire.com/movies
Going into geeky web developer mode here:
In a CSS layout, any block-level element that has an outline applied to its :focus state (by default in Firefox and most browsers for accessibility reasons,) and that is also enclosed in a container element that has overflow: auto applied to it (a widely used float clearing method) will potentially break the layout on focus.
The fix for this is to include :focus { outline-offset: -1px; } (or a similar value) in your stylesheet. This fixes the issue in Firefox 3.5.2 Win. More testing to come soon (Opera.)
I watched Avatar in 3D last night, and was underwhelmed. See the movie review.
(also returned the graphics and colors on this website. It might be a few until I can redesign.)
I’ve added reviews for Pirate Radio (just ok!), Step Brothers (meh!), Men Who Stare at Goats (terrible!), and Sherlock Holmes (awesome!) on the Movie Reviews page.
Our NBA Playoffs bracket has proven to be very popular over the last few seasons, and now we’re making it easier than ever to access the bracket goodness!
Just go to NBAPlayoffsbracket.com and you will be taken to the latest in updates (currently for the 2009-10 season, but each year will direct to the current bracket.)
And for our experimental NFL Playoffs bracket, we’ve implemented NFLPlayoffsbracket.com to make that just as easy.
Stay tuned for more announcements soon concerning the brackets and Breathingfire.com!
The 2009-10 NBA season officially began today, and to kick things off right, we’re introducing our 2010 NBA Playoffs bracket!
If you are new to our brackets, here’s how it works: Throughout the season, the current standings are used to create a picture of how the playoffs would be structured if they began on any given day. It’s a fun way to track your team as they fight through 82 regular season games on their march to the Playoffs. The bracket is updated automatically with the conclusion of each game (refresh to see the changes after the games conclude.)
When the Playoffs arrive, the bracket will be updated with each team’s wins, along with game times and scores.
View the 2010 NBA Playoffs bracket now! If you have any comments or suggestions, please comment on this post. Thanks for visiting!
Breathingfire.com is known for its popular NBA Playoffs bracket, and now we’ve reached into the world of the NFL to bring you live playoff-placement coverage all season.
During the regular season, the 2010 NFL Playoffs bracket is updated live as games finish, giving you an idea of where your favorite team(s) are in the Playoff picture. During the Playoffs themselves, the bracket will be updated with scores, and winning teams will advance along the tree.
We recently completed a total overhaul of the bracket CSS (our brackets are 100% XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS 2.1, of course,) so the bracket looks a little bare at the moment. But we will be sprucing it up over time. But the main theme of these brackets is quality over quantity and usability over flash.
If you have suggestions for how we can improve this or any of our brackets, please let us know by leaving a comment below. Otherwise, check out the 2010 NFL Playoffs bracket!
Note: We’re still working on getting the standings correct, as the current seeds are not lining up right. We’ll update this when we have that fixed.
…and no, this isn’t Naked Day.
I removed the graphics from this page because I was sick of looking at them after a year and a half. It was looking stale and amateurish as well.
I’ve played with some different designs over the past couple of months but haven’t gotten anywhere solid yet. I’ve got some big changes coming up in the next couple of weeks (in real life) so I’m not sure if I’ll have time to make things look better here during then or not. We’ll see.
In the meantime, you get white! (and a hideous logo. Wow that sucks.)
