When you're building sites which use many contributed modules (+ views and panels) you can end up with a ton of CSS files being called at the same time. Generally the main down-side to this is load-time, so most Drupal site developers choose to use the css-aggregation function (found under Site Config > Performance) that comes stock with Drupal.
The problem with using Drupal's aggregated CSS is that you end up with a crazy mashed-up chunk of CSS which can be a pain when you're still editing it live on a site in development (for example, using firefox's web development toolbar or firebug).
Asides from the load-time issue, I noticed something else whilst doing x-browser testing on a new site we're developing @ design guru; Internet Explorer 7 won't load more than 30 (or 31?) CSS files at once! Supposedly a security feature, this annoying phenomenon makes CSS/styling dev work a pain in ie7 but fear not, there's a work-around and its as easy as installing a module!
The 'IE Unlimited CSS Loader' module will save much head-scratching - it fixes the ie7 problem and lets you still work on your site's css without using the Drupal aggregator. Nice. :)
What's wrong with the homepage?
I would like to read more of your information but when I go to the homepage the site reads like a column of one word so that the screen needs to be scrolled all the way down too quickly. It's kind of irritating, Just thought I'd let you know I would assume there was something wrong at my end but all the other web pages I've went on view normally. Hope you can fix it. Have a great day,
x-browser testing...
Thanks for the heads up John - if you read this msg, do let us know what browser you were using when you saw things all wonky.
The plan is to launch a new incarnation of the site next week that will definately work in all major browsers ;)
Browser I was using at the time.
Sorry for the long delay; I don't know if the info is still going to be valuable or not but here is the Browser I was using at the time.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20091221 Firefox/3.5.7 GTB6 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Hope that helps.

That fact seems to be hot! Hence scholars not have to finish the custom essays or term papers by their own, they can use your support.
