Just over 4 weeks now my partner and myself lost our baby to placenta abruption, she was 4 days over her due date and this far into the pregnancy we were oblivious to anything like this ever happening .. at least not to us.

We would like to give something back to those charities and to keep the memory of our little boy alive.
Though html5 has yet to be confirmed fully "ready" for commercial or client use, many web designers have already started to use the new html5 markup language to structure their websites and take full advantage of the latest tags and features.
Round emblem logo's seem to be the "in thing" at the moment, you see them everywhere, magazines, blogs, community websites such as dribble & forrst.

Css3 makes it quick and simple to apply various new styles to your css stylesheet to achieve great effects. Css3 isn't fully supported by all browsers so most designer tend to use the new css rules if they can degrade nicely in browsers such as Internet explorer.
