Visual Studio Express

If you want to create serious desktop programs (especially for Windows), I highly recommend that you use Visual Studio. Visual Studio is what is called an IDE, or in simple terms a application that you use to develop other applications with. With it you can write code in many popular Microsoft languages like c++ and C#.

This tutorial should help you pick the right version and get it installed.

Flash of Unstyled Content (Annoying White Flash)

Yup, I'm about to cover one of the most prominent web page styling problems ever known to man: the Flash of Unstyled Content (FOUC)!

What is it? Well, there are two different ways of explaining it:
  1. To the viewer, it's that annoying white flash that you see every time you view a different page on a website when the website has a background image or background color that isn't white.
  2. To the web coder, it's that short moment of time during which the page is unstyled (defaulting to a blank white page) that annoys the viewers.

Let's fix it! :)
