    • What dows everyone think of the introduction of "LESS" to the templates? Has everyone seen marked improvements to the speed of their site or experienced any problems? Do you find it a little annoying that Firebug has become "Less" useful? Let's hear it. :?

      Hmmm...as I've dallied with LESS I've found that FireBug and Chrome Dev Tools have become more important than ever.

      When I still was a member I would hack my CSS code in the CSS file it originated from. This was DISASTROUS when updates came around.

      So I quickly moved to using custom.css files and I override everything from there.

      With LESS I don't even care where the CSS code originates from!

      I know that if I hack the code I found with Chrome Dev Tools, all I have to do is save it in my template-custom.less file and I'm DONE!

      Plus I LOVE!!! the nested rules that LESS uses. My CSS stylesheets are a thing of beauty now - great way to impress clients :wink:
