R.I.P. F.D.R.

New(ish) CSS Gradient rules imposed for webkit
So, I’m working on the new version of nerd appropriate and am making heavy use of CSS3 for the site. Why? Because drop shadows are a pain in the ass when done graphically and since we are in 100% control of how this site goes out I am making sure it degrades nicely, but isn’t necessarily pixel perfect on all fronts. So if you’re using modern builds of Chrome, Firefox, Opera, IE,...
