WBC Holdings | a minimal, clean design

[benrwhite]

Good Job, it's a fine site. I like the simple colour scheme. Did you use some kind of responsive framework or template? I haven't mastered this 'responsive' thing yet myself. Should the pages have max-width declaration? They seem to go as wide as a widescreen will let them.

Thanks! I appreciate the nice comment

I used the Gridless Boilerplate ( https://github.com/thatcoolguy/gridless-boilerplate ), though that doesn't really include much as far as a responsive framework (except for image handling and a few includes to add media query support to old browsers).

As far as max-width, it really depends on the design. I did a lot of testing on various screen resolutions, and, because of how I formatted the content, I didn't see the need for it in this case. Usually stretching across the screen is something to avoid, though I didn't think it affected readability here (please let me know if you disagree). I would normally include max-width on sections that have text though.

If you're interested in responsive web design, I highly recommend Ethan Marcotte's landmark book on the subject "Responsive Web Design": http://www.abookapart.com/products/respo...web-design
He also has a much shorter article on the subject: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/respo...eb-design/
Mobile first is good too: http://www.abookapart.com/products/mobile-first
