I went to the SF NewTech Meetup in San Francisco this week. I brought my camera and took a couple pics while I was there. Afterwards I made a Photoshop design for a web page from them, and converted it to code here at psd2css Online. The conversion to code took 30 seconds. Here is the page that was generated:

Sometimes :)

So I guess it was pretty obvious that putting more than one _frame layer on a page should just work. It's a common design paradigm. People would use it. And you let me know.

Added a new feature today that you can use to create your own custom video player. Sure you can use YouTube or something similar, but then the video player is branded to you tube and only allows you up to 10 minutes of video. If you have a need for something a bit more personal, now you can design your own frame for your video, design your own controls, and all the code is written for you. All you have to do is name the layers right.

SHOOT!! I thought it was such a slam dunk win to run all the generated PNG files through a PNG optimizer before delivering them to you! Really made a big difference in the size of those PNG images. But apparently the IE6 PNG transparency thing chokes on the optimized images! So it's back to the drawing board for the time being on optimizing the PNG files.

Hey Everyone -

We all want a fast website, right? One of the best ways to make your website faster is to make sure the size (in bytes) of all your images is as small as possible. psd2css Online creates entire websites directly from your Photoshop PSD design and by default creates PNG images (due to the ability to put transparency in your layers in photoshop). PNG images can be big however.
