Web Design Cheats & Tips

Memory, not being what it should be, and seeings as how I don't design every day, I often need to look up simple coding practices when making a new website.  

Here is my own little cheat sheet

Help with colors
Color Combos: This site helps you choose compatable color schemes.  Love it.

Color Picker Here is w3 School link for HTML Hexidecimal colors.  Has lighter and darker shades which is super helpful:

Optimize images
Image Optimizer: If your image is way too big (file size and wxh) then you can shrink it here online.


FROM your regular HTML pages:
Referencing Style Sheets:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="tis.css" />
</head>
Referring to Div: 
<div class="navlinks">
</div>
FROM the CSS document:

Font Family sample:
body {
  font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;
}

Divs:
.navlinks {
    text-align: center;
    margin-left: auto;
 }
