  • The mathematical proportions of your typography are vitally important to how readers perceive both your site and your content.
  • Font size and line height are proportionally related.

  • Responsive grids that use gutters proportional to the screen can make the content feel like it's being squeezed together or pulled apart as the screen width changes.
  • With elastic gutters this just doesn't happen, as the gutters always stay in proportion to the content.
  • If you specify all your font-sizes, line-heights, as well as vertical paddings, margins and borders in ems, they'll all scale in proportion as the font-size is changed using media queries, always keeping the baseline grid intact (save for a 1px rounding error or two), which lets the layout keep the same vertical rhythm regardless of screen size.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • GGS comes with a set of type presets aligned to a baseline grid, which is based on a base line-height of 1.5.

  • To start, export SVG files for each of your images, drop those files onto the grumpy animal above, then click the 'Downlode it!" button to grab the files.
  • Once downloaded, check out preview.html to see a preview of your icons and their class names. To integrate in your site, you can drop the exported files into a folder on your site and paste the contents of grunticon.loader.txt into the head section of your HTML templates. Note: Be sure to replace the 4 [YOUR PATH HERE] parts of that text with the path to your own grunticon files (a root-relative path often works best across a whole site).
