Thanks you for the clarification Tim.

In this particular case, even a minor change to the maincss.css file results in
many modifications. For instance, setting a default font style removes a ton of
code. Same thing with setting default styles for basic HTML elements.

If a new design approach results in greatly reduced code, how do you present
that approach to the community without presenting the greatly reduced code?
