@Htoo Tay Zar – I’m sorry I do not have a coupon code. I have not read the Smashing WordPress book however I would assume it is a good book as well. Either way you should have a good read and I know Smashing Magazine greatly appreciates the support!

I’m searching the Smashing Book review on Google and found your blog. Seems like quite interesting book. Now I can only purchase one book and thinking about to choose Smashing Book or Smashing WordPress book. By the way, Do you have Smashing Book discount coupon code? Thanks for review.

For a somewhat different opinion, please see the articles have been publishing on my blog. So far I have written 4 out of the 5 planned sections – each about 600 words long.

I ordered the book thinking it was going to be something completely different, a good guide for inspiration just like Smashing Magazine website, but I was really dissapointed.

It is not like the website where everyday you find new and useful things and trends. In my opinion the book is just for beginners, talking about things you can find in lots of blogs.

I expected more from Smashing Magazine, but it´s just muy opinion.

My only issue with the book is that it came to me with an appearent bad glue binding job. Pages were falling out all over the place. Contacted them and they immediately replaced it. Now that I’ve been able to finish reading it I love it!

“The question of optimal layout doesn’t have a single answer. Depending on the context, the time constraints and designer’s skills, each layout type has its purpose.”

Could not agree more.

Love Smashing, great design content.

9 Starts Out of 10.

That sounds weird. Did you mean 9 Stars out of 10?
