Why we love 960.gs

04. Dec, 2008 by Adii Rockstar in Development

If you’ve been following us, you’d know that many of our themes (as well as this website) are based on the extremely popular 960.gs CSS framework. Now even though many designers / developers prefer not to use CSS frameworks in their projects, we think that we’re maximizing the value of the framework, whilst maximizing the ability of our users to edit the themes.

See – we believe that because it is so easy to understand how 960.gs works that it makes customizing our themes slightly easier. Considering that our themes are created to serve as the basis for your next (unique) project; customizablity thus plays a big role in that regard.

Beyond the customizability of a theme using 960.gs; we also think that the framework is extremely flexible, which allows us to create a wide variety of different themes, whilst it also doesn’t limit users of our themes in what they can & can’t do with them.

Do you have any experience with 960.gs? What do you think about us using it? Think it adds value?
