The Documentation for the latest preview release
0.12.2 (06/24/2012)
- [Vertical Rhythm Module] Removed the
constatnt in favor of a more clear$browser-default-font-size
constant. - [Vertical Rhythm Module] The
mixin now styles the<html>
element instead of the<body>
element. This makes the vertical rhythm module work better withrem
based measurements. - [CSS3] Added 3D transform support for Mozillia, IE, and Opera.
- [CSS3] Added
support for css3 columns. Add support for the columns shorthand property. - [CSS3] Added
support for CSS Regions. Docs - [CSS3] Added mixins for column-break properties to the columns module.
- [CSS3] Added a css3/hyphenation module for the
properties. - [CSS3] Made the API more consistent across the different mixins in the transitions module.
- [CSS3] The text-shadow mixin now supports the spread parameter and it is used to progressively enhance browsers that support it.
- [CSS3] Add a mixin for the unofficial
property. Docs - [CSS3] Removed the
prefix for gradients and transforms. Microsoft took so long to release them, that the spec was approved first. - [CLI] Added a
option for adding sass import paths via the CLI during compilation and project set up. - [Configuration] For better ruby and rails integration, the
command now accepts Sass::Importer objects and Ruby Pathname objects. - Reverted the hide-text mixin to the
method. If you prefer the Kellum method then you need to set$hide-text-direction
in your stylesheets. $legacy-support-for-mozilla
can be set tofalse
to disable output for Firefox 3.6 or earlier.- Cleaned up the inline-block mixin to have less output and make the vertical-alignment of that mixin configurable or even turned off. Details
- Output of SVG and original webkit gradients is now omitted when using the degree-based linear gradient syntax.
- Added a
configuration flag for the compass command line. - Added
color helper functions, for better ligthening/darkening of colors.

0.11.3 (06/11/2011)
Note: Due to some internal changes to compass you may have issue with your sass cache. Run compass clean
to clear your cache.
- The

- Sass Colors will no longer cause an error if you use them as sprite names.
- Added support for -ms gradients in background-image and background properties
- Give a better error if Sass::Script::Functions.declare does not exist.
0.11.1 (04/25/2011)
- This release fixed some Gem dependency issues with Sass.
0.11.0 (04/24/2011)
This changelog entry is aggregated across all the v0.11 beta releases. If you're upgrading from a previous beta v0.11 beta release, you can read the 0.11 beta release notes here.
Breaking Changes & Deprecations:
- Deprecated imports and APIs from v0.10 have been removed. If you are upgrading from v0.8, please upgrade to v0.10 before installing v0.11.
- Changed defaults for the box-shadow and text-shadow mixins. Previously the horizontal and vertical offset were both 1, which expected a top left light source. They are now set to 0 which assumes a direct light source, a more generic default.
- The linear-gradient and radial-gradient mixins have been deprecated. Instead use the background-image mixin and pass it a gradient function. The deprecation warning will print out the correct call for you to use.
- Passing an argument to the
mixin is not necessary and has been deprecated. - Some blueprint color defaults now use color functions instead of color arithmetic. This may result in different output for those who have color customizations.
- The deprecated & unused arguments to the
mixin have been removed. - Lemonade has been merged into compass. If you've been using Lemonade, you need to upgrade your sprites to use the new Compass Sprites.
- Compass now depends on Sass 3.1 which is a new stand-alone gem that has been separated from Haml. If you have Haml installed, you must upgrade it to 3.1 as well.
- Compass now depends on ChunkyPNG, a pure-ruby library for generating PNG files.
- The FSSM library that used to be vendored is now upgraded and a normal gem dependency. If you don't know what this means, then you don't need to care :)
New Sass Features
Sass 3.1 brings a ton of great new features that Compass now uses and you can too!
- Proper List Support. Space and Comma separated lists used to cause values to become strings when passing them to mixins. Now the values in lists are preserved as their original types.
- Sass-based Functions. Define your own value functions and use them anywhere.
- Keyword Style Argument passing to Functions and Mixins. It can be hard to understand what the values being passed to a mixin or function are for, use keyword style arguments to make it easier to understand what's going on.
bubbling. Use a media declaration anywhere and it will be bubbled to the top level for you.
For more information about the new Sass features, see the Sass CHANGELOG.
- Updated from blueprint 0.9 to blueprint 1.0
- Added .info and .alert classes to forms.css [CMM]
- Fixed numerous bugs in forms, including the fieldset padding bug in IE6-8 [CMM]
- Fixed specificity problems in typography.css and grid.css [CMM]
- See Lighthouse for more bug fixes
- Full blueprint changelog
- If for some reason you'd like to stay on the older version of blueprint you can run
the following command in your project before you upgrade (or after temporarily downgrading):
compass unpack blueprint
- [Blueprint] Blueprint no longer adds
to the widths ofinput
, andselect
form fields, so compass no longer defaults to using!important
in those cases. If you were relying on this behavior, you may need to adjust your stylesheets accordingly. - [Blueprint] Added a new sass function called span($n) to the grid module which replaces
the now deprecated span mixin. If you are using this mixin, please replace it with:
width: span($n)
Spriting Support
- Compass now has a world-class spriting system after merging with Lemonade. See the spriting tutorial for more information.
- The old sprite module is still available for working with hand-generated sprite maps.
- The Sprite internals are abstracted allowing for different engines. By default compass uses ChunkyPNG which only supports PNG files, so some users might prefer ImageMagic which is available via a plugin.
- Magic Selectors make it simple to define
sprites that work with user interaction pseudo classes like
, etc.
CSS3 Module v2.0
Our CSS3 module makes writing CSS3 today almost as easy as it will be when all the browsers officially support the new features. The second version of the compass CSS module brings the API up to date with developments over the past 6 to 9 months of browser changes and more closely matching the most recent CSS specifications. Upgrade guide. Summary of changes.
- Support for multiple box shadows and multiple text shadows
- Support for 2d and 3d transforms
- Opt-in SVG support
for gradients in opera and IE9. Set
$experimental-support-for-svg : true
in your stylesheet to enable it. - To generate a simple linear gradient in IE6 & 7, you can now use the filter-gradient mixin.
- New images module makes gradients simple for all properties that support them using the CSS3 standard syntax.
- Compass now has opt-in support for the CSS3 PIE library. Docs.
- Added optional support for IE8 with
which defaults to true. - Updated the
mixins to make IE's hacky DirectX filters optional based on Compass's legacy support settings. - A new CSS3 mixin for appearance was added.
- The font-face mixin has been updated again with the syntax recommendations from font-spring. The API has not changed.
- Added support for the new webkit gradient syntax that matches the css3 specification.
Support for older webkit browsers remains enabled at this time.
To disable it, set
to false.
Helper Functions
helpers now intercept standard css functions and parse them into Sass Literals. These work with new vendor helpers (-moz()
, and-svg
(yes, we know svg is not a vendor)) to return specific representations of the linear & radial gradients. Theprefixed()
function will check a value to see if it has a certain vendor-specific representation.- New color helpers:
, andscale-saturation
make it easier to construct apis that manipulate these color attributes. - The
helper now returns html5 elements when the display isblock
and also will return only html5 elements forelements-of-type(html5)
- Compass now provides several helper functions related to trigonometry.
There's no practical use, but it's hoped that users will find fun things to
do with these for technology demonstrations:
- Takes the sine of the number.cos($number)
- Takes the cosine of the number.tan($number)
- Takes the tangent of the number.pi()
- Returns the value of π. If you provide a number with units ofdeg
then it will return a unitless number after converting to radians. Otherwise, it assumes the number is a radian length measure and passes the units along to the result.
returns a #AARRGGBB formatted color suitable for passing to IE filters.- Compass has added a number of new helper functions that begin with
, helpers that begin with-compass
should be considered "private" and are not to be used. - A third argument is now available on the
helper. Whentrue
, it will enable/disable the cache buster for a single image url. Or when a string, will be the cache buster value that is used.
Configuration Files
- Added a new configuration property to disable sass warnings:
- New infrastructure for supporting experimental css3 functions that are prefixed but have the same syntax across all browsers. It is now possible to configure which browsers support which experimental functions outside of the compass release cycle. For details, see the cross browser helpers.
- The options passed to the CLI can now be inspected within the compass configuration file.
The CLI options will still override the values set within the config file, but they might
inform other values. For instance
compass compile -e production
will have the environment parameter preset to:production
so that you can set other values in the project accordingly. - Added the ability to piggy back on compass's watcher within your configuration file. See the configuration reference for details.
- You can now register callbacks for compilation events so that you can take custom actions when they occur. For instance, you might want to notify Growl when a stylesheet compilation error occurs.
New Compass Typography Module
- Some text-based mixins have been moved from utilities to the new
typography module. The old imports are deprecated now.
Affected modules:
, andutilities/text
and their sub-modules. - There is a new typography module: Vertical Rhythm. This makes it easier to align the typography of your page to a common rhythm.
Compass Layout Module
- New layout mixins for absolute positioning: stretch, stretch-x, stretch-y
- There is a new mixin for creating pure-css grid backgrounds for verifying grid alignment for both fixed and fluid grids.
Compass Utilities
- A new mixin
is available in the float module that makes it easier to reset the floats introduced from that module. - A new module has been added to create readable text against an arbitrary background color based on the lightness of the background: compass/utilities/color/contrast.
- The comma-delimited-list has been renamed to delimited-list and generalized to accept a delimiter which defaults to a comma. The old function continues to exist, but is deprecated.
Command Line
- Add a
option to the compile and watch commands. This will print out the time spent compiling each sass file and a total at the end.
- In rails 3, there's no need for an initializer. Instead we use a Railtie. If you have one, please remove it.
- We now default to app/stylesheets for sass files and public/stylesheets for css files -- though they can still be changed after installation or on the command line during project initialization.
- Compass is now a gem plugin in a rails environment.
- In a rails3 environment the compass configuration can now be changed without restarting the rails server process.
- Compass now allows ERB processing of non all non-binary filetypes during extension installs.
- Extensions that are installed into
will be automatically available to all your compass projects. - Created an official API to add configuration options to compass. More information.
- We have a new website design from Brandon Mathis
- Compass now officially supports the following ruby interpreters: jruby, ruby 1.8.7, ruby 1.9.2, ree, and rubinius.
- [Command Line] compass config -p
-- will now print out the configuration value for that property for the current project - [CSS3] Bug fix: In webkit, when the last gradient color stop was a percent less than 100%, the intermediate values were being scaled to that value.
- [Command Line] You can now pass --no-line-comments to the Compass command line to disable line comments.
- [Configuration] Make the compass configuration file more self documenting by adding comments
, andline_comments
. - Work around IE compatibility issues with the :last-child selector. Commit.
- [Command Line] Only the action is colorized in command line output now.
- [Command Line] Compass Validator has been upgraded and fine-tuned. It is now using the
"css3" profile to validate and provides a more consistent UI with other compass commands.
To upgrade:
gem install compass-validator
- [CSS3] The box-shadow
value now defaults to using the browser default instead of 0. Set $default-box-shadow-spread to 0 if you prefer the older behavior. Since the browser is supposed to default to 0, you should see no change except less CSS output. - [CSS3] The output order of the
mixin now matches the W3C specification. The color and inset values used to be swapped.
0.10.6 (10/11/2010)
- HTML5 reset includes box-model reset for newer browsers.
- Fix encoding issue for ruby 1.9 users of the font-face mixin.
- Make it easier to disable the asset cache buster:
asset_cache_buster :none
- Can now set
to make thehorizontal-list
mixin skip the padding properties. - It is now possible to disable support for legacy IE browsers. See the docs for more information.
0.10.5 (08/29/2010)
- The HTML5 Reset mixin now resets the following new elements:
- A new Utility mixin has been added: inline-block-list.
- Compass projects can now (as was always intended) use paths outside of the project directory
for css, images, fonts, etc by configuring those locations using
instead ofxxx_dir
. For instance:css_path = "/var/www/docroot/css"
. It is recommended to set the correspondinghttp_xxx_path
when you do this, for instance:http_stylesheets_path = "/css"
. On the command line, all absolute urls are treated as paths instead of relative directories so--css-dir /var/www/docroot/css
will setcss_path
. Should both a directory and a path be specified, the path will override the corresponding directory. - A new command is available that will unpack an extension from the system location into
your extensions folder. Run
compass help unpack
for more information.
0.10.4 (8/08/2010)
- [Rails] Fixed a bug introduced in 0.10.3 that caused rails applications using the old configuration file (config/compass.config) to break.
- [Extensions] Make it easier to create manifest files by allowing template files to be discovered. See the Manifest Declarations section of extensions tutorial for details.
- [Rails] Don't install configuration files when installing extensions.
- [Compass Core] All url helpers now accept a second argument that when true will cause only the path to be emitted. This allows the url helpers to be used with IE filters.
0.10.3 (8/1/2010)
All rails users should run the following command:
compass init rails --prepare
This will update your compass initializer file.
Compass Core
- Add missing clearfix import to horizontal-list.
- Emit less css for inline lists with the same result.
- New helper
returns the opposite value of a position. Documentation - Allow horizontal lists to be floated to the right.
- Bugfix for inline-font-files helper.
mixin no longer uses$postscript
name or$style
type variables, in favor of the Paul Irish smiley bulletproof technique. Older declarations will still work, but will not apply the variables and will display a deprecation warning.+box-shadow
now supports$spread
length and$inset
declarations.- The gradient mixins output official w3c declarations along with the
prefixed versions. The official code is based on the w3c spec and is nearly ideantical to the mozilla version, although it is currently not supported by any browser. +opacity
no longer uses any prefixed variations, as IE usesfilter
and all other modern browsers support the official spec or nothing at all.- Support for specifying horizontal and vertical radii for the shorthand border-radius property.
- The
mixin now uses pixels instead of ems to work around an opera bug.
- Two colors used in typography can now be customized.
- Support for inputs of type email.
- Extensions can now create empty directories with the
directive. Docs. - It's now easier to load extensions from a configuration file using the
As stated above, all rails users should run the following command:
compass init rails . --prepare
This will fix a bug in the rails initializer that caused compass extensions to not be recognized when placed into the vendor/plugins/compass_extensions
directory. It will also make sure that future bugs in the boot process won't require an end-user action to fix.
0.10.2 (May 31, 2010)
This is a bug fix release. Details on Github.
0.10.1 (May 15, 2010)
- Fixed a regression in the Blueprint module, the blueprint reset
was no longer automatically applying the reset styles. This behavior
is restored in this release. If you
@import blueprint/reset
and then apply the reset mixin yourself, you should remove the mixin call or change your import toblueprint/reset/utilities
. - Added a subcommand for emitting sass imports for the sass CLI.
- Added a subcommand for listing the available frameworks.
- Fixed a number of bugs related to Sass & Rails integration
- Fixed some documentation issues in the command line and on the website.
0.10.0 (May 10, 2010)
This changelog entry is condensed from a very long beta release. You can read the 0.10.0 beta release notes here.
Gem Location
The compass gem is now (and has been for some time) hosted on rubygems.org. If you have an old version installed from github, please remove it:
sudo gem uninstall chriseppstein-compass
Sass 3:
- Compass now depends on Sass 3 -- Please be prepared to upgrade.
Things won't break but you'll have a lot of deprecation warnings.
Upgrading is pretty easy thanks to the
tool. See the Sass Changelog for more information. - All compass stylesheets are now written in the SCSS syntax,
if you import compass framework stylesheets with an explicit
extension, then you'll receive deprecation warnings directing you to update your stylesheets. - A new command line switch
) has been added to commands that install stylesheets into your project that allows you to select the syntax to use (scss or sass) - A new configuration option
now exists and defaults to:scss
. Please update your project's configuration file withpreferred_syntax = :sass
if you prefer to use the indentation-based syntax. - You may silence deprecation warnings by adding
sass_options = {:quiet => true}
to your configuration.
- The compass command-line tool has been re-written to allow be easier to use and be more flexible. The old command line is still supported at this time. "compass help" will get you started on using the new command line syntax.
- Allow specification of a height for the grid image
- For the truly hardcore compass users, you may now create a compass project using "compass create my_project --bare" and you'll have a completely bare project created for you with no sass files provided for you.
- Get stats on your compass project with "compass stats". You'll need to install the "css_parser" ruby gem to get stats on your css files.
- Command line switch (--boring) to turn off colorized output.
- Color any output from the
red during compilation. - If you only want to compile certain files, you can now
specify them when invoking compass compile. E.g.
compass compile src/foo.sass
- The entire configuration infrastructure has been re-written to make it easier to support the various sources of configuration data (project type, config file, command line, and hard coded defaults)
- Whether to generate relative links to assets is now controlled by a
separate boolean configuration flag called
in the configuration file and--relative-assets
on the command line. Settinghttp_images_path
is deprecated. - You may now configure the http locations for your project by simply setting
for the top level path of the project. You may also sethttp_images_dir
, andhttp_javascripts_dir
relative to thehttp_path
instead of setting the absolutehttp_XXX_path
counterparts. - You may now configure the fonts directory for your project (fonts_dir). By default, for standalone projects, it is the "fonts" subdirectory of your css directory. Rails projects will default to "public/fonts".
- The sass cache location can now be set in the compass config
file using the
property and the cache can be disabled by settingcache = false
. - In your configuration file, setting
is deprecated in favor of settingrelative_assets
IMPORTANT: Existing rails projects must change their compass initializer file to:
require 'compass'
rails_root = (defined?(Rails) ? Rails.root : RAILS_ROOT).to_s
Compass.add_project_configuration(File.join(rails_root, "config", "compass.rb"))
- The rails template has been updated to use the latest haml and compass versions.
- Compass now supports Rails 3, but asset_host and cache_buster integration is disabled.
- When configuring Sass during initialization, Compass now passes the template locations as an array of tuples instead of as a hash. This preserves ordering in all versions of ruby and ensures that the deprecated imports do not take precedence.
Compass Core:
- A new helper function
can now be used to refer to assets that are relative to the css directory. - Compass sprite mixins are now more flexible and feature rich.
- Fixed the
function to allow comma-delimited selectors for both arguments instead of just the first - There is no longer any outline on unstyled links in the :active and :focused states.
- New CSS3 Compatibility Mixins. You can import them all with
@import compass/css3.sass
Read the [documentation][http://compass-style.org/reference/compass/css3/]. - The import for
has moved from "compass/utilities/general/inline_block" to "compass/css3/inline-block". - The import for
has moved from "compass/utilities/general/opacity" to "compass/css3/opacity" - Note: If you are using the
mixins, you may need to update your imports. +min-height
, and+bang-hack
mixins in the compass/utilities/general/min.sass module. (Credit: Adam Stacoviak)- Split out
as its own mixin. (Credit: Andrew Vit) - Support :first-child and :last-child pseudo selectors for +horizontal-list. (Credit: Cody Robbins)
- Added new helper functions:
that return the size in pixels. (Credit: Deepak Jois & Richard Aday) - The
mixin will now infer the image dimensions by reading the image file if the image dimensions are not provided. - In addition to installing the
, the configuration constant$use-mozilla-ellipsis-binding
must now be set totrue
to support any version of mozilla less than 3.6 in the+ellipsis
- The useless blueprint "modules" folder will be removed. Please update your blueprint imports by removing the modules folder. Deprecation warnings will be emitted if you use the old imports.
- Blueprint mixins that used to accept a "body selector" argument, are now
deprecated, instead you should pass
to them and mix them into the selector of your choice. - Make the primary blueprint mixins easier to use by allowing them to be nested when passing true as the first argument. The old approach of passing a selector as the first argument is now deprecated in favor of a simple flag to indicate nesting or not.
- Take margins into account in liquid grid. (Credit: Christoffer Eliesen)
- YUI was upgraded to 2.7.0
- Yahoo has deprecated the YUI CSS framework, as such YUI has been extracted to a plugin. If you use it, please install it.
- Extensions can now be installed locally by unpacking them into a project's "extensions" directory. Rails projects use "vendor/plugins/compass/extenstions".
- Extensions can deliver html to projects if they like. The html can be in haml and will be transformed to html and can contain inline, compass-enabled sass.
- All files can be processed using ERB before being copied into the user's project.
- Compass extensions can now add support for other application frameworks. These extensions can help compass understand the project structure of that framework as well as provide runtime integration for ruby-based apps. Contact me if you plan to do this -- the first couple times may be a little rough.
- Compass extensions can now add new command line commands. Contact me if you plan to do this -- the first couple times may be a little rough.
- Extensions can now provide help documentation just after a project is created and on demand when the user uses the command line help system. This can be done via the manifest file or by adding a USAGE.markdown file at the top level of the framework template.
- Lot of new docs can be found at: http://compass-style.org/.
- The compass configuration object is no longer a singleton, this makes it possible for other ruby software to manage multiple compass projects at a time.
- Compass no longer requires rubygems in order to work, this is a ruby best-practice.
- The command line tool is now tested using the cucumber testing framework.
- Removed support for the rip package manager.
- Removed the dependency on RMagic for grid image generation. (Credit: Richard Wöber)
- The
mixin is deprecated and will be removed. If you use this, please move the source to your project.

can now be used to refer to assets that are relative to the css directory. Commit. - Cross browser ellipsis mixin is now available. Use
compass -p ellipsis
to install it into your project since it requires some additional assets. Commit.
- The +colruler mixin now accepts an argument for the color. Commit by Thomas Reynolds.
- A bug was fixed related to how javascript installation as part of an extension manifest. Commit by dturnbull.
- When installing a file, the :like option can now be set to have it installed into the

- Setting
is now deprecated. Instead, please setrelative_assets

. Commit.
Command Line
- A new command line option
can be used to cause links to assets generated via compass helper functions to be relative to the target css file. Commit.
0.8.2 (July 04, 2009)
Fixed a bug that caused touch to fail on windows due to open files. (Contributor: Joe Wasson)
Fixed some build issues and a bug in the rewritten --watch mode that caused changes to partials to go unnoticed.
image_url() now integrates with the rails asset handling code when stylesheets are generated within the rails container. This causes your rails configuration for cache busting and asset hosts to be used when generating your stylesheets. Unfortunately, all that code runs within the context of a controller, so the stylesheets have to be generated during first request to use this functionality. If you need to compile stylesheets offline, use the compass configuration file to set the
. Commit.An official Rails template for Compass is now provided. Commit by Derek Perez.
The Blueprint port has been upgraded to match Blueprint 0.9. The following changes were made as part of that project:
- Removed body margins from blueprint scaffolding by default. The old body styles can be reinstated by mixing +blueprint-scaffolding-body into your body selector(s). Commit by Enrico Bianco.
- A bug in the calculations affecting the +colborder mixin has been fixed. Commit by Enrico Bianco. Related commit.
- Blueprint now has inline form support. Mix +blueprint-inline-form into a form selector to make it inline. Commit by Enrico Bianco.
- Please update the conditional comment that surrounds your IE stylesheet to use "lt IE 8" as the condition as these styles are not needed in IE8. New blueprint projects will now use this conditional as their default. Commit by Enrico Bianco.
- Explicitly define image interpolation mode for IE so that images aren't jagged when resizing. Commit by Enrico Bianco.
When starting a new project based on Blueprint, a more complete screen.sass file will be provided that follows compass best practices instead of matching blueprint css exactly. A partials/_base.sass file is provided and already set up for blueprint customization. Commit
The sizes and borders for form styling can now be altered via mixin arguments. Commit by Thomas Reynolds.
Grid borders can now be altered via mixin arguments. Commit by Thomas Reynolds.
The reset file for blueprint has moved from compass/reset.sass to blueprint/reset.sass. Please update your imports accordingly. Also note that some of the reset mixin names have changed (now prefixed with blueprint-*). Commit by Noel Gomez.
Compass Core
Sprites. A basic sprite mixin is now available. Import compass/utilities/sprites.sass and use the +sprite-img mixin to set the background image from a sprite image file. Assumes every sprite in the sprite image file has the same dimensions. Commit by Thomas Reynolds.
Reset. The compass reset is now based on Eric Meyer's reset. which makes no attempt to apply base styles like the blueprint reset does. Existing compass projects will want to change their reset import to point to blueprint/reset.sass -- which is where the old default reset for compass projects now lives -- see the blueprint notes above for more information. Commit by Noel Gomez.
A bug was fixed in the tag_cloud mixin so that it actually works. Commit by Bjørn Arild Mæland.
Sass Extensions
- The
function can now be used to generate a data url that embeds the image data in the generated css file -- avoiding the need for another request. This function works likeimage_url()
in that it expects the image to be a path relative to the images directory. There are clear advantages and disadvantages to this approach. See Wikipedia for more details. NOTE: Neither IE6 nor IE7 support this feature. Commit.
Asset Hosts. You can now configure the asset host(s) used for images via the image_url() function. Asset hosts are off unless configured and also off when relative urls are enabled. Commit. In your compass configuration file, you must define an asset_host algorithm to be used like so:
# Return the same host for all images: asset_host {|path| "http://assets.example.com" } # Return a different host based on the image path. asset_host do |path| "http://assets%d.example.com" % (path.hash % 4) end
Configurable Cache Buster. You can now configure the cache buster that gets placed at the end of images via the image_url function. This might be useful if you need to coordinate the query string or use something other than a timestamp. Commit Example:
asset_cache_buster do |path, file| "busted=true" end
You can now set/override arbitrary sass options by setting the
configuration property to a hash. Commit.You can now specify additional import paths to look for sass code outside the project. Commit. This can be done in two ways:
- By setting
to an array of paths. - By (repeatedly) calling
- By setting
The compass configuration can now be placed in PROJECT_DIR/.compass/config.rb if you so choose. Commit.
Command Line
Watch Improvements The watch command was rewritten for robustness and reliability. The most important change is that generated css files will be deleted if the originating sass file is removed while watching the project. Commit.
The images and javascripts directories may now be set via the command line. Commit.
The usage output (-h) of the command-line has been reformatted to make it more readable and understandable. Commit.
The configuration file being read can now be specified explicitly using the -c option. This also affects the output location of the --write-configuration command. NOTE: The -c option used to be for writing the configuration file, an infrequently used option. Commit.
You can now install into the current working directory by explicitly setting the command line mode to -i and providing no project name. Commit.
Compass Internals
Some internal code was reorganized to make managing sass extensions and functions more manageable.
Some internal code was reorganized to make managing ruby application integration more manageable.
The compass unit tests were reorganized to separate rails testing from other tests.
The Rip Packaging System is now supported. Commit by Will Farrington.
A licence is now available making the copyrights and terms of use clear for people who care about such things.
Extracted the css validator to an external gem that is only required if you try to use the validation feature. This makes the compass gem a lot smaller (0.37MB instead of 4MB). To install the validator:
sudo gem install chriseppstein-compass-validator --source http://gems.github.com/
0.6.8 thru 0.6.13
The compass gem is now built with Jeweler instead of Echoe. No changes to speak of. These versions were bug fixes and working out the new release process.
Bug fix release.
The output_style will no longer be set in the compass.config file. Instead compass will use the runtime rails environment to set a sensible default.
Command Line
The Sass cache directory will be placed into the sass directory of the project instead of the directory from where the compass command was ran.
Compass Core
Extracted two new mixins from +horizontal-list. The new +horizontal-list-container and +horizontal-list-item mixins can be used to build your horizontal list when you need more control over the selectors (E.g. when working with nested lists).
The Haml project now releases a gem called haml-edge that is built from the haml master branch instead of stable. Compass now depends on this gem and will continue to do so until haml 2.2 is released. This should reduce the number of installation problems that have been encountered by new users.
Command Line
- Fixed a bug that had broken the --write-configuration (-c) option.
- The --force option will now force recompilation. Useful when the stylesheets don't appear to need a recompile according to the file timestamps.
Unit tests
- Some unit tests were cleaned up for clarity and to better take advantage of the compass project management facilities.
Compass Core
Converted all mixins definitions referencing images to use the new sass function image_url()
. The following mixins were affected:
The calls to these mixins should now pass a path to the image that is relative to the images directory of the project.
Command Line
- Required frameworks specified from the command line will now be added into the initial project configuration file.
Command Line
Added a command line option --install-dir that will emit the directory where compass is installed. Useful for debugging and drilling into the compass examples and libraries.
Bug fix: The http_images_path configuration default should be "/images" instead of "/public/images".
Command Line
These changes, coupled with upcoming changes to Sass result in significantly reduced time spent on compilation for large projects.
- The compass command line will no longer recompile sass files that haven't changed (taking import dependencies into account).
- The compass command line will now respect the -q (quiet) option during compilation. Additionally, the quiet option will be set by default when watching a project for changes.
Split the push and pull mixins into sub-mixins that separate the common styles from the ones that vary. The generated css when using presentational class names will be smaller as a result. The existing +push
and +pull
mixins continue to work as expected. The following mixins were added:
Additonally, the liquid plugin was updated to have a span mixin that matches elsewhere.
Added Yahoo's version of the css reset. To use it, mix into the top level of your project:
@import yui/modules/reset.sass
- Conditionally defining #blank? on String/NilClass (Erik Bryn firstname.lastname@example.com)
- Set compass environment in plugin based on RAILS_ENV (Lee Nussbaum firstname.lastname@example.com)
Maintenance release that fixes several bugs in the handling of configuration files.
New Core Functionality: Patterns
Patterns give a framework or plugin access to the compass installer framework to install customizable sass, html as well as image and javascript assets.
A pattern is a folder in the plugin's templates directory. It must have a manifest file that tells compass what to install and where. Unlike the project template, a pattern can be stamped out any number of times.
It is best for pattern stylesheets to only provide example usage to get the user started. All the core styles for the pattern should be distributed as part of the framework's stylesheets as mixins to facilitate easy upgrades and bug fixing on the part of the pattern's maintainer.
Example Usage: compass --framework blueprint --pattern buttons
Please read the Wiki Page for more information.
New Command-line options:
Validate your project's compiled css. Requires java and probably only works on Mac and Unix.--grid-img [DIMENSIONS]
Generate a background image to test grid alignment. Dimension is given as+ . Defaults to 30+10. -p, --pattern PATTERN
When combined with with the --framework option, will stamp a plugin's pattern named PATTERN.-n, --pattern-name NAME
When combined with the --pattern option, the pattern that gets stamped out will be isolated in subdirectories named NAME.-c, --write-configuration
Emit a compass configuration file into the current directory, taking any existing configuration file and any command line options provided into account. (command line options override configuration file options).
New Sass Functions:
Compass projects can call these sass functions within their sass files, if you find them useful.
enumerate(prefix, start, end)
Generates selectors with a prefix and a numerical ending counting from start to end. E.g. enumerate("foo", 1, 3) returns "foo-1, foo-2, foo-3"image_url(path)
Uses the compass configuration to convert a path relative to the compass project directory to a path that is either absolute for serving in an HTTP context or that is relative to whatever css file the function was being compiled into. In the future, this function may also tap into the rails asset host configuration.
New Compass Core Mixins
In order to include fixes for IE's double-margin bug universally, floats were implemented as a utility mixins. These are available by importing compass/utilities/general/float.sass which also imports the clearfix module.+pie-clearfix
Implementation of the position-is-everything clearfix that uses content :after.
Blueprint 0.8
The Compass port of Blueprint has been upgraded from 0.7.1 to 0.8.0. The 0.8.0 release brings many bug fixes and a few backward incompatible changes if you use it's presentational classnames (you don't do that, do you?). Upgrading to 0.8 is automatic when you upgrade to compass 0.6.0. The Blueprint team didn't release a detailed changelog for me to point at here. One of the key features of the release was the inclusion of three new core blueprint plugins (a.k.a. folders you can copy). These are what prompted the development of the compass patterns feature and two of them are packaged as patterns:
- Buttons
To install:compass --framework blueprint --pattern buttons
Then follow your nose. - Link Icons
To install:compass --framework blueprint --pattern link_icons
Then follow your nose.
The third plugin is the RTL (right-to-left) plugin. To use this one, simply import it after the import of the blueprint grid and your mixins will be redefined to work in a left to right manner. Additionally, it provides +rtl-typography mixin that works in conjunction with +blueprint-typography and should be mixed in with it.
Lastly, I've rewrote some of the presentational class name generation code so that it very nearly matches the blueprint CSS. Please note that they are not 100% the same because we fix some bugs that are not yet fixed in blueprint-css and we use a different clearfix implementation.
Bug Fixes
- A Safari bug related to the +clearfix mixin was resolved.
- Running the compass command line installer a second time.
Bugs Introduced
Almost definitely. Please let me know if you encounter any problems and I'll get a patch out

Roly Poly Shot Glasses Will Spill Your Liquor
The Roly Poly Shot Glasses Cordial set costs $33 and make your precious liquor wobble around on the table. This is the last thing I need, because I have a hard enough time getting the goodness to my lips without spilling anything, and I'm tired of drinking off the table/floor. Allegedly if you fill them properly they won't spill, but it looks like I may have filled that shot in the front a little too much. Hey! Who the hell keeps leaving their hors d'oeuvres on my table with no napkin? This table is a family heirloom people, my grandmother gave it to me. Get the hell out of my house you disrespectful a-holes! F you all, I'm getting sloshed alone.
Roly Poly Drink Set Falls Very Short of Classy [uberreview]

You may think Team Canada only has hockey on the mind at the World Under-18 Championship in Finland.
But that isn't the case.
Since 2002, Hockey Canada has brought an education consultant along with the team to the tournament, to help the 17 and 18-year-olds keep on top of school work from the almost three weeks of class they'll miss.
This year is no different, as Allan Matthews is part of Team Canada's staff at the tournament. Matthews will organize at least six study halls over the course of Canada's pre-tournament camp and the 11-day event.
"They'll have at least six sessions and we're encouraging them to use their down time to read and work on this as well," Matthews says in the lobby of the Sokos Hotel Ilves in Tampere. "The policy group feels it's very important that they not lose out on their education because of coming to this tournament."
Matthews adds that teachers from schools across Canada have helped by giving the players homework for the trip. Some of them have tests to write, others have Hamlet to read – not an easy task on the best of days, so you can imagine how hard it can be when you're playing in a world championship.

Did anyone pitch well yesterday? Clayton Richard (3 2/3 IP, 4 ER, 10 baserunners, 2 Ks) went in Petco. Hodgepadre, why do you let me down the last week of the season? Do I not feed you after midnight like you ask?
Please, blog, may I have some more?Elian Herrera
Brandon Beachy left Saturday's start with a sore elbow. Usually when pitchers have a sore elbow it means one of two things. One, they're going on the DL for a long period of time. Or two, they're going to say they're going on the DL for only 15 days but it will be a long time. Yeah, those are kinda the same things, but it adds a little flare when I break them up into two things. My English Comp professor would've said, "Grey, you add filler on top of your filler then you put commas where they're not supposed to be then, add more filler. Have you considered a math major?" I told you to sell him about two weeks ago, but I understand how hard it is to sell an overperformer, so many of you were probably stuck with Beachy, or stranded, as the case may be. I'd DL him and hope for better news heretothen. Bee tee dubya, I just made up heretothen. Pretty good, right? Feel free to use it for the rest of twelve after twenty. Anyway, here's what else I saw this weekend in fantasy baseball:
Kris Medlen – The Braves stretched out Medlen, then yo-yo'd all over the place with what he should and would be doing. Fredi Gonzalez said, "I have enough problems to worry about since I can't pitch Venters 400 innings this year." Now with Beachy's injury, Medlen remains in the bullpen. Yup. Instead, the Braves are filling Beachy's rotation spot with Jair Jurrjens. Obviously, the Braves management threw a dart at a board to fill the rotation spot and said dart landed in a nearby toilet.
Please, blog, may I have some more?I got the sense from comments and other non-scientific criteria that people were looking to get a feel for Trevor Bauer. Or at least get their grubby little hands on him. I did say to buy him back in April and again in May, but who can remember that far; I can barely remember how this sentence started. With a preposition? I don't know, let's forget the whole thing and have a pina colada! What, you don't like coladas? How about dancing in the rain? Not into YoGa? Yeah, his ERA is shizz. Let's see what Scott, our prospect writer (his actual last name), said in the past about Bauer, "Bauer profiles as a top-of-the-rotation starter with an upper 90s fastball and a devastating curve. But all I keep thinking about is what Grey would taste like slathered in teriyaki sauce." Huh? Not sure how that slipped through my strict editorial process. In the past, I said about Trevor, "Bauer & Skaggs opened for Big & Rich." Well, that wasn't the best quote from me. Shoot me! Now, you just shot your computer screen. You're silly! On our preseason top 25 fantasy baseball prospect post, the only pitchers above him were Moore and Darvish. Okay, Moore's had some struggles, but those two names give you an idea of how valuable Bauer could be. He's blown through the minors about as good as anyone. Right now, he's sporting a 11+ K-rate and a low-2 ERA between Double and Triple-A. The only concern for him is his walk rate (over 4), but he has the Ks to make up for it. He looks like the pitching version of the hitters the Diamondhacks are famous for. High Ks, crazy upside, might call crap on a table a Pu-Pu platter. In 2012, I'll give him the line of 7-5/3.60/1.30/100 in 90 innings, but there's obviously room for huge upside (and risk of some downside (though the Ks will be good (how many parentheses am I inside of here (Anyone?
Please, blog, may I have some more?R.A. Dickey went seven and a third innings with no runs and eight Ks as he dueled Wang. Dickey vs. Wang was the greatest sword fight since Steven Seagal and Jean-Claude Van Damme both arrived at the same tanning salon in the late 80′s. In this game, surprisingly there weren't that many dribblers through the vas deferns. Streamers would have to wait until later in the day with Leake. The game started with the Nats putting a giant zipper in the outfield for each pitcher's entrance. Then the knuckleballs came early and often and showed a polished Dickey.
Please, blog, may I have some more?In 1992, the last time the Astros had a number one draft pick they skipped over Derek Jeter and drafted Phil Nevin. As they say, the rest is history. Or as an Astro fan says, "The rest never happened because I became a Texas Rangers fan. Go Hamilton!" This year the Astros weren't letting it happen again. With their number one pick, they selected 17-year-old shortstop, Carlos Correa. To put this in fantasy perspective, the Astros took Ramon Castro 17th overall in 1994.

Wonder Boysby Michael Chabon
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Grady Tripp is a pot-smoking middle aged novelist who has stalled on a 2611 page opus titled Wonder Boys. His student James Leer is a troubled young writer obsessed by Hollywood suicides and at work on his own first novel. Grady's bizarre editor Terry Crabtree and another student, Hannah Green, come together in his wildly comic, moving, and finally profound search for an ending to his book and a purpose to his life. Review:"Chabon's chapters aren't unreadable, but they are unstrung: a series of funny scenes about not writing a novel that somehow don't hang together as a novel." Time
Review:"Michael Chabon's second novel, Wonder Boys, corroborates what his first novel (The Mysteries of Pittsburgh) and short-story collection (A Model World and Other Stories) lead us to believe: Mr. Chabon is a veritable wordsmith and a writer for our age....His dialogue is real, as always, and the development of his plot, perfectly calibrated." Elizabeth Manus, San Francisco Review of Books
Review:"[A] wise, wildly funny story...Chabon is a flat?out wonderful writer — evocative and inventive, pointed and poignant." Shelby Hearon, Chicago Tribune
Review:"A beguiling and wickedly smart novel....There is first?rate satirical farce in Chabon's novel but essentially it is something rarer: satirical comedy." Richard Eder, Los Angeles Times Book Review
Review:"The young star of American letters?a writer not only of rare skill and wit but a self?evident and immensely appealing generosity." Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post Book World Review
Synopsis:Grady Tripp is a middle-aged Philanderer with a penchant for pot and failed marriages, who is unable to complete the long-awaited follow up to his award-winning novel. His brilliant student James Leer is a troubled young writer obsessed with Hollywood suicides and prone to fabrication and petty thievery. In their odyssey through the streets of Pittsburgh, Grady and James are joined by Grady's pregnant mistress, his hilarious bizzare editor, and an achingly beautiful student lodger. The result is a wildy comic, poignantly moving, and ultimately profound search for past promise, future fame, and a purpose to Grady's life.
About the AuthorMichael Chabon is the author of the novel The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, and two story collections, including Werewolves in Their Youth.

Latest version 6.21 features: expanded ESMTP auth, enhanced user-defined server ports, server connectivity for instant messaging & chat, generic DDE interface, Win7 support, email spam filtering features, and passed parameters for external application launching.
Other Features:
* Exchange Server (IMAP) and POP3 support for email retrieval & scanning!
* Interactive 2-way wireless query/response, reply to sender, and info on demand - from your own data sources!
* Launch other apps, control your PC and processes from wireless devices or by protected remote email or IM command
* Launch scripts, or other apps when data-scanning conditions are met
* Output from the launched apps can be filtered, parsed, and used as return message content
* Remote command and control of PC and SpreadMsg operations via email, wireless devices, or Instant Messaging
SpreadMsg Lite is the FREE version of Compuquest, Inc's award-winning SpreadMsg software. The Lite version features an email scanning agent that searches the user's email waiting at their ISP or Exchange Server. EMail scanning and retrieval is supported for POP3 and IMAP email servers. For new messages waiting, it applies user-specified conditions, like looking for specific text content, or for email "from" a specific person, or email containing specific words in the "subject", etc. If the conditions are met, wireless or instant messages are delivered or other action is taken, such as: parse and forward all or part of the original email; send a specific file somewhere; launch an external application, batchfile, or script; and more. And, "2-way query and response" features enable the remote user to ask SpreadMsg for specific information, which is then returned to the user using Instant Messaging, delivered to a wireless device, an email destination, or via dialout. Also provided is a sampling of other SpreadMsg software features available in three other upgrade versions of the software. In those features, additional "DataSources" for scanning, rule-application, parsing, and messaging are added. In addition to scanning email, data may be captured in real time from computer files, internet pages, spreadsheet data, other applications running on the user's PC, or live internet datafeeds. User conditions act on this data to filter, extract, parse, send out messages, start other applications, etc. Message delivery also can be based on conditions such as any change in data value, data above or below a specific numeric level or range, textual content match, repeated periodic timed delivery interval, and more. The top-of-line PRO/fs further adds powerful "fileserver" features for larger and more diverse messaging using special-format files, as well as extended remote command and feature control of SpreadMsg via remote email, IM, or wireless device.
See screenshots and details of the Lite version's email scanning agent here.
The user may define up to 10 "Selections" from any of the supported DataSources - spreadsheet data, Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) to other software applications, data files on the user's PC or network, internet web pages, or other sources. (Email scanning and filtering is handled by the email scanning agent) as a seperate feature engine of SpreadMsg. The EMail Agent checks each email and processes the content without disturbing the messages at all).
Once DataSources are defined, checking the "Start Link" will establish connection for each chosen Selection, between the DataSource and SpreadMsg. A copy of the current value of the linded DataSource is shown, and visual indication of the established link is provided, until cancelled. This data is maintained in real time, and will be updated instantly upon any change from the DataSource.
Online operation (message delivery) is engaged by clicking the "START Messaging" button. The user may enable display of message delivery progress, or disable this feature. Also, a disk logging capability provides timestamped history of each message, and is stored to disk for audit trail or later retrieval. While still in offline mode, the user will continue receiving real time updates and display for each Selection of DataSource data, so long as that Selection remains activated. Delivery choices include Dialout to pager or cellphone, EMail, Instant Messaging, Write to Disk file, or no message delivery. Individual Selections may be temporarily "de-activated" so that no delivery occurs. Such control may be done remotely in SPradMsg Pro and Pro/fs by sending SpreadMsg a specially coded command via EMail or IM.
Limits may be put on message delivery, so that once the desired Selection conditions are met, (and should they be met repeatedly, such as a stock breaking out), the user will not receive a large number of message deliveries.
A high level of flexiblity is afforded to the user for definition of the conditions under which message delivery occurs. Also, since in many cases, the DataSource data may consist only of a raw value which does not serve well as a message by itself, provisions exist for the user to specify text that will precede and follow the raw data when the message is delivered. For example, let's imagine that a spreadsheet cell Selection was monitoring a real time update of a manufacturing process temperature value, or perhaps a realtime financial datafeed via DDE was chosen to monitor the realtime price value of a particular stock. In each case, the actual DataSource value may only be a single raw number, such as 72, or 48, but by adding the before and after text elements, the message delivered might read:
Acid bath HCL Vat 4 now at 72 degrees Celcius, ...orData Parsing is a powerful feature to extract brief data from long DataSource content. Some examples would be specific text out of a large data file, or long text blocks from spreadsheets, network logfiles, emails, files on disk or network, etc. Here is a screen shot of the SpreadMsg Data Parsing window:
Data Parsing is individually definable for each SpreadMsg "Selection", and also for each rule set in the EMail Agent.
Two types of parsing are user-selectable. Line Parsing, and Text Parsing each offer powerful features that will extract specific portions from a large data chunk and select or combine those portions to form the delivered message.
As you can see, the above features of SpreadMsg software provide powerful, comprehensive, and flexible ways to monitor your data, and stay informed of exactly what is important to you, using delivery to wireless devices, instant messaging, dialout connectivity, or EMail delivery.

CHINO HILLS - Chino Hills residents challenging Southern California Edison's Tehachapi Renewable Transmission project are not swayed by the utility company's preliminary cost estimates to build the project's transmission lines underground.
As requested by the Public Utilities Commission, Edison released a preliminary report last week estimating the cost to place the lines underground would range from $486 million to $807 million. Those numbers are in contrast to the estimated $172 million to build the lines above ground.
Hope for the Hills, a residents' opposition group, and city officials have been advocating that the project be built underground.
"This is not unexpected. Edison continues to exaggerate costs and timelines. We know that. It's a well-known fact," said Bob Goodwin, who helps coordinate Hope for the Hills.
The $2.1 billion project aims to carry wind-generated electricity from Kern County to the Los Angeles Basin.
Edison officials have already started work extending the towers about five miles into the Chino Hills right-of-way, though work has been halted by order of the Public Utilities Commission.
Although Goodwin is skeptical of Edison's estimates, he said it is too soon for the group to take issue with them since Edison is required to submit its final report on undergrounding by Feb. 28.
"The next report is the one that's going to hold a little more weight, if you will, in what direction Edison is going to go," he said.
The group will discuss the report at its Thursday meeting.
"We obviously have not had a chance to digest all of this and want to review it, but we will be going over that over the next several days as well as getting (the) group together and deciding what next steps are going forward with Edison," he said.
The city is required to file its testimony and response to Edison's preliminary report at a later date.
Until then, City Manager Michael Fleager said he could not comment on Edison's report.
"It's hot off the presses. We'll review it, digest it and submit our testimony," Fleager said.
Chino Hills officials have spent more than $2 million in fighting Edison for two years, insisting the right-of-way is too narrow for the proposed 198-foot towers and that it causes safety hazards.
"Absolutely the city supports the underground solution to eliminate the towers in the right of way," Fleager said.
Edison officials said it was premature to speculate how undergrounding the lines could impact rates for its customers, but nearby resident Joanne Genis said she believes the costs should be absorbed by Edison, not the ratepayers.
"They're about making a profit, but when they made a mistake like this, there shouldn't be any profit in this city," Genis said. "They should reduce the costs by giving up the profit for this 3.5 miles."
Genis said Edison has exaggerated the costs because it does not want to place the lines underground, but is hopeful the city and residents' wishes will be met.
"I think the PUC can see through Edison," she said. "I think the PUC is really doing their best for our community to make this happen, so I'm praying that it will happen."

I have looked for a long time for a bedspread for our queen bed. I didn't want a comforter set where a bedskirt was necessary. I wanted a bedspread that covered mattress and box spring and sideboards of the bed frame. This spread fits the bill perfectly. It does not go to the floor because we have an especially high mattress but that's okay with me. It's not too heavy but heavy enough for added warmth in the winter. It will be fine for summer use as well. It is sturdy and well constructed. The pattern even makes it easy to make the bed each day, lining up the edge of the pattern to the edges of the bed. It is well made, pretty, true to the color in the picture on the website, and large enough to generously cover both the bed and the pillows. At last I don't need to have pillow shams to make my bed look finished.
I ordered the King size for my Cal King bed. This spread is huge and just as in the picture, drops down to the floor. It's softer than I expected. I usually buy cotton products only, never polyester, but this bedspread is very soft. Nice purchase.
This bedspread exceded my expectations! The color is perfect (I got the blue) and the quality is superb. I have a small dog and haven't noticed her nails messing up the stitching so far. I would highly recommend this if you like light bedding that doesn't get hot. I love how it fits on my queen bed as well.
I've used this bedspread for months before writing this review. The color came rich and has stayed that way through several washings. I have two cats and a Min Pin, so this had to be durable ... and it is! Withstood several washings without beading or fuzzing. The stitching has held in place. There are no stray strings or exposed sewing threads. Great buy!
I, too, was looking for a bedspread for a guest room that looked elegant, but was comfortable. I am very happy with the bedspread. I bought the blue spread/full and the sizing is wonderful. I have tried desperately to find the pillow shams pictures with it, but have had no luck!
I bought this item about 4 years ago..it has been a great value and has been very durable through many washings.
I was looking for a plain bedspread because I have many colorful abstract paintings in the room. The bedspread did not match well with the taupe colored walls. I expected "chocolate" brown to be very dark like dark chocolate candy. This color is more of a wood brown. The quality is good but not rich looking. The price is right for what it is. For some reason it is hard to find bedspreads that cover the pillows and everything. I don't want a comforter. Spreads are easier and look neater. I would recommend it if the colors are right for you.
Wonderful color, coordinates with all the other accessories!
I purchased this quilt in the burgundy. The size and color were perfect but that is about all that was good about it...after one washing, it was full of a white lint. I thought, at first, that it just may be the initial washing but the lint continued. We have dogs that sleep in our bed so being able to wash weekly is essential. This product did not hold up well at all, the seams are already coming apart and it still has the lint after a number of washings. Dissappointed in this product!
The fit in Queen is excellent and goes all the way to the floor. I love the style, pattern and color. The blue is more of a seafoam color, the spa color everyone likes these days. Looks and feels much more expensive than it is. I normally buy a king as someone else stated but the queen fits well and I am happy with it.
