Title: [Jenny Louthan] Needmore Designs Task

I had an amazing time working on this project; I spent a few hours each of the past evenings (four nights total) working on it. Once I decided to pursue the animating drop-down divs as displays for the questions and my answers, I stuck to it even though I realized along the way that I have some learning to do before I can optimize jQuery animations with responsive web design. This was where my biggest hurdles emerged. I need more knowledge of what CSS animations can and cannot accomplish and to determine how to keep my JavaScript usage to a minimum. Another problem I ran into was creating the vertical rhythm visual (you can see it in action by clicking the button in the footer) from the Compass mixin debug-vertical-alignment(). After some pondering, I realized I could just grab the crazy CSS that my SASS was compiling to and stick that in the JavaScript function for the visual. A final yet smaller struggle I experienced was whether or not to resize my element responsively. In the end I decided against it in the interest of time and a fear of compromising the rad typographic effects I created. Don’t forget to mouseover the title and Enjoy!

Thank you!
