With transitions, you need to specify what property is being changed.

-webkit-transition-property: border-radius;

ah thanks for that! missed that completely. nice one :-)

No problem! Transitions are tricky, right?

yeah! the problem i find is that I understand a lot of it and can go into other people's code and change it to what i want with a bit of tinkering the bit i find really really hard is starting with an idea and a blank space and trying to code from scratch what i want. it will just take practice

in fact now you mention it i find classes the hardest to get my head round, with pseudo classes, ids and children etc

CSS can be a really tricky language, I totally commiserate there ;) I have friends who are more back-end devs and they literally refuse to touch CSS unless they absolutely have to, hah!

When I first started I too got confused with all the different types of pseudo classes and elements and such. It takes lots of practice, like you said. Plus you start to learn all the cool things CSS can do when you learn the more 'advanced' tricks!

wow you have spent a lot of time on treehouse!

Hee, well not THAT much! Admittedly some of the points I have I didn't watch the video (or I just skimmed it) and went straight to the quiz or code challenge, since some stuff was straight up review for me. So it's less time than it appears. But I'm lucky, I was able to take a month away from taking projects on and just focused on learning new stuff/improving my skills, including here on Treehouse.

I actually love Treehouse without being too much of a suck up to them. I cheekily got my school to pay for it in the interests of my pupils knowledge of course (hee hee) and while they get information for their studies I get to keep right up to date with stuff.
