Stockfish Redesign → stockfishchess.com

I gave the Stockfish website a little redesign. Now sporting a fluid layout and OS detection, among other things. Best of all, it’s super-compliant and looks pretty much the same in IE 7, 8, 9, Firefox 4, Chrome 6 and 7, and Safari 5. Go check it out.

Inspiration

If you look carefully, you’ll see that the Stockfish redesign is heavily influenced by these sites:

  • Postbox
  • Tapbots
  • Get Base App
  • Feed a Fever
  • Panic Transmit
  • GoSquared
  • Courier

These web designers are genii.

Mail Quick Tip: Archive Gmail messages

Arguably one of Gmail’s best features is the archive button. Instead of throwing messages away, we can take advantage of Gmail’s vast storage and keep them. Hit the “Archive” button and the message disappears from the Inbox, but it remains searchable and can be found in the “All Mail” folder.

If you’re using Apple Mail, there is no archive button. But we can repurpose the delete button to be an archive button. Here’s how:

Navigate to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > [Your account] > Mailbox Behaviors. Then uncheck “Move deleted messages to the Trash mailbox.”

You’re all set! Now when you hit the “delete” button in Mail’s toolbar, the message will be archived instead of deleted.
