@Medo: Haha, every font has its place. Even if it’s only to shock/amuse friends… In fact I declare Comic Sans to be bold and provocative.

@zytzagoo good point… if the first item is the most popular, then if styled respectively, we’d end with some kind of slanted texture, i.e. the most prominent words in the upper left, the less prominent bottom right.

It would be nice to see an experiment (JavaScript perhaps) that would position list items randomly, so we still get the cloud pattern.

Nice series! Keep it up!

One tiny addition: if the order of the list items matters (that is, if the first item in the list really is the most popular joke type), I’d go with an ordered list (markup-wise).

The CSS medicine man! I must say I’ve enjoyed reading your episodes from start to finish (this one is the icing on the cake) and its always nice seeing how other people approach things. Though do my eyes deceive me …. Comic Sans MS!!!!!!! :)

Now this is excellent! I’ve learned something new now. I used to have “Divitis” but now I’m cured :) Thanks.
