People were asking about a cheat sheet for Blueprint… a reference page with all the important class names that you can print out and keep on your desk. Fortunately, Alejandro Vasquez of digitart.net posted one to the mailing list over the weekend, and just in time! Here's the direct link to the PDF: Blueprint CSS Cheat Sheet [PDF]. Join the BP Google group to keep up with news about Blueprint! Update: A new cheat sheet is available for version 0.7+, you can get it here: Blueprint CSS Cheat Sheet.
The "Basic Setup" block uses smart quotes instead of straight quotes in the HTML. This doesn't matter so much when working off a print-out (as opposed to a copy-and-paste example), but might be worth fixing for the .1 release.
-Nitpicker.
Adam, thanks for catching that, I'll forward it on to the person who made it.
If blueprint was good and simple, we didn't need a cheatsheet.
These class names just don't work if you haven't written them.
If you can't write your own css "library", forget it and get back to Dreamweaver.

thanks for the cheatsheet…
Nice, Christian! Thanks!
Hey!
Great Stuff Christian, thanks for this! I have it printed.
nice!
I see how to do columns. How do I do row spacers with Blueprint? For now, I'm doing just a div start and end tag with a non-breaking space inside and no class assignment.
Volo: I'm not sure what you mean by row spacers…
He means using divs as spacers which is bad practice… how would you suggest using blueprint and creating gaps between spans both horizontally and vertically.
I wouldn't suggest relying on Blueprint for that… if you need to apply various spacing to your rows, you would give each one an ID and in your custom CSS, apply margins to those rows. If you want every container to have some extra spacing, then you can just modify the "container" class in your custom CSS.
Ok. That's what I've been doing so far but I just wondered if Blueprint had a facility to take care of that.
Cheers.
