My fastest Plone skin design yet!

Lying in bed early thismorning I had a vision for a Plone skin which I thought would be refreshingly different to those I'd seen for plone in the past. One and a half hours later, it was finished! And of course, it was all done using ploneCustom.css. I'm really finding CSS and Plone fun at the moment.
My only beef that was when I tried to put a border-right on
#portal-column-one using the tableless Plone design, it stopped
floating, and showed up below the other columns. So I had to go back to
the table layout.
I also learned that what the CSS !important rule does. I find there is
just a little too much space wastage on the content area with 2ems, but
I could never work out how to override it. I just needed to add the
!important tag to my ploneCustom overriding class.
I probably should use the skin I designed here on this site. I have
enjoyed having a pink sushi site, but change is a good thing, I think.
