I wonder how hard it is to convert a fixed width style template to a responsive one? I gather it's a bit more complex than using the fluid designs that have been around for some time.

The only reason I'd even consider using responsive design techniques like CSS3's media queries would be for a site like I was advocating in my earlier posts in this thread. A very simple, mostly text-based site with some very minor graphic elements.

Without going into a full blown "responsive design" you could accomplish quite a bit by changing your css from px to em. I just seen a video that explained how it works in a typography lesson. Right now, I'd confuse all of us trying to explain it but if your interested I can find it again.

If you run across it, send it my way. I know about 'liquid' and 'elastic' design, but have always used fixed width due to the nature of adult sites which use a lot of images. The full blown 'responsive' design, as I understand it, uses css3 and allows images to scale.

May be a good topic in a different section…

+ I suppose if you make a links list responsive - you are still linking to unresponsive free sites... so in essence - you are making it easier to annoy people
