I am always looking for great new CSS code that is improvements on old HTML coding and that makes creating websites easier.  My friend John sent me a link to a great site that has some great code for a simple CSS3 Lightbox.  No need for javascript or anything else crazy, just simple and easy to apply.

At this point the only drawback is that it is not supported by Internet Explorer till IE9 and it may have some issues there, but then whats new when it comes to a bad Microsoft browser that doesn’t meet todays W3C standards like the other browsers out there.  I have tested this functionality in Firefox4, Safari5 and Opera11 and it works great.

Check it out over at CSS Ninja’s site:

 One of the longest running mods for the original Half-Life video game, CounterStrike defined a generation of first person shooter games.  Even today many still play this game with the same enjoyment they did so many years ago.  Now it looks like CounterStrike will get a face lift, new maps and possibly a few adjustments in game play with some new game play modes, but from first looks the enjoyment of the original will stay intact.

Follow the link below over to Joystiq for a preview of the new CounterStrike - Global Offensive:
