Where's the course on grids?

Where's the course on grids?

There isn't one yet, but apparently it's planned for an upcoming one

Can columns be different widths?

No, that's not how grids work in the context of graphic design

Can an object span more than 1 column?

Yes, that's the whole point

Creating a grid system is an intermediate topic and outside the scope of the Create a Basic Website course.

In fact at this point you don't need to worry about making your own grid because, Allison Grayce Marshall already did all the hard work of taking the png that gridulator spits out and converting that into a CSS stylesheet named grid.css.

Now all you need to is download grid.css and link to it in your html.

grid.css can be downloaded as part of the project files, there's a link under the downloads section to the right of the video.

... so, columns CAN'T be different widths. That helps a lot.

.grid_12 { margin: 0 20px 10px 0; float: left; display: block; }

I'd like to build a page like this http://baxter5.com/new/img/template.jpg

However; I don't think that's possible with Allison's Grid. ...shouldn't the float: left be float: right? Or is it showing that I don't know what I'm talking about. ~Michelle

You mean smell's like bacon?

I did that. If you want to recommend a course that you think will help, I'm all for it. I'm looking for answers and not finding them.

I designed this site. http://www.baxter5.com

I've done other small sites. This wouldn't be a first for me. Just different.

Frankly I'm not very sure if I can put a blogpost from the competitor.

Whatsoever, a blogpost is a blogpost, hope this would work: The grid system
