He/she is the kind of person who tries to stand out more when we are adolescents, when we are fighting to affirm our identities, our dreams, our place in the world. We are filled with doubts about what to do, and all of a sudden here comes the creep: always the leader, the one who thinks he is the best-looking, the most intelligent, the most able to face the challenges that lie ahead.

In the case of boys, normally he imposes himself by brute force or by his “smart” attitudes, as if he knew more than everybody else.
In the case of girls, the creep is always the one who seems to attract the looks of all the guys, get invited to all the parties, always be the most elegant.

During this important rite of passage called adolescence,while we suffer from feeling neglected, insecure and fragile, the creep sails smoothly by.

One fine day, when we are already adults, we think about getting together with our friends from adolescence. We organize a party, usually in a restaurant – where everyone shows up with their husbands and wives.

The creep shows up – generally married like the rest of us. We are all interested in what has become of his/her life.

The first surprise is that the creep went nowhere. Or rather, he may have taken a couple of successful steps, but soon life proved implacable towards his arrogance – the adult world is quite different from the one we live in when we are young.

When dinner starts, it seems that we have all been transported back, but soon we realize that he was just an instrument to enable us to grow. After a couple of drinks, we see the creep at bay, trying to prove a strength that no longer exists, feeling that we still believe that he is the leader of us all.

We smile, exchange kind words with everyone, pay the bill and leave with the impression that the creep has made the wrong choice. We think: “everything in that person should have worked out right, and it didn’t”.
All of us have known a creep or two in our lives. And that’s just as well.

I recently had to write a custom function for a client to load various stylesheets dynamically for a WordPress theme (I use Genesis framework). So I added some code to home.php file in my child theme. I hope this helps someone.

<?php
//this simply gets all the css files in Child Dir and show them in a dropdown select via @studiopress
$style = genesis_get_option('style_selection') ? genesis_get_option('style_selection') : 'style.css';
?>
    <p><label><?php _e('Color Scheme', 'genesis'); ?>: 
        <select name="<?php echo GENESIS_SETTINGS_FIELD; ?>[style_selection]" id="home_style">
         <?php
         foreach ( glob(CHILD_DIR . "/*.css") as $file ) :
           $file = basename($file);
           if(!genesis_style_check($file, 'genesis')){
              continue;
           }
          ?>
           <option style="padding-right:10px;" value="<?php echo esc_attr( $file ); ?>" <?php selected($file, $style); ?>><?php echo esc_html( $file ); ?></option>
         <?php 
         endforeach; ?>
       </select>
    </label> <span class="description">Please select theme style</span></p>
/*include additional stylesheets here*/
<link rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" title="golden-theme" href="<? echo CHILD_URL."/golden.css"; ?>" />
<script>
     jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
     //monitors select value change
     $('#home_style').live('change',function()
        {switch_style($(this).val());
           
        });
    });
    function switch_style ( css_file )
    {
      var i,j;
      var link_tag=document.getElementsByTagName("link");
      var select_styles=document.getElementById("home_style").options  ;

      for (i = 0 ; i < link_tag.length ; i++ ) {
        
        //disbale all select stylesheet elements
        for (j = 0 ; j < select_styles.length ; j++ ) {
            if ((link_tag[i].href.indexOf(select_styles[j].value) != -1)) {
                link_tag[i].disabled = true ;
            }
        }
        //enable only option which was selected in dropdown
        if (  link_tag[i].href.indexOf(css_file) != -1) {
            link_tag[i].disabled = false ;
        }
      }
    }
</script>

Notes: Please note that style.css is already included in the head. You can include above code at the end of page you want to display it on.

NB: While I’m not a designer by trade, I do feel that I have an eye for product design and usability. So, take this all with a grain of salt. Also, in case there is any confusion, I’m not talking about designers redesigning their own sites. This is purely aimed at people redesigning other…

This post mentions how important is UX and Usability in the re-design process

There are four engineers traveling in a car; a mechanical engineer, a chemical engineer, an electrical engineer and a computer engineer. The car breaks down. “Sounds to me as if the pistons have seized. We’ll have to strip down the engine before we can get the car working again”, says the mechanical engineer. “Well”, says the chemical engineer, “it sounded to me as if the fuel might be contaminated. I think we should clear out the fuel system.” “I thought it might be an grounding problem”, says the electrical engineer, “or maybe a faulty plug lead.” They all turn to the computer engineer who has said nothing and say: “Well, what do you think?” “Ummm – perhaps if we all get out of the car and get back in again?”

Its the best joke I’ve heard so far.

Lets start with classical “Hello World!”
