Hi
I'm a Ruby on Rails programmer as well as a ubuntu fanatic :) I am looking for someone that absolutely loves graphic design and that is decent at it as well as is good we CSS.
Why am I looking for someone like this? Well if you message me ill tell ya haha, but I'm building (actually have built) a website that needs some CSS love.
If anyone out there is interested and is ambitious, give me a message!
thanks

I'm pretty good at CSS, but... not graphic design.

I'm alright at graphics design and i have some knowledge of CSS because you need to know CSS to skin Songbird. Here's the work that i've done:
Songbird Skins
Focus (http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/1656)
Aero Bird (http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/1321)
Aero Bird Pro (http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/1416)
Glossy Coat 2 (http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/1369)
Black Diamond (http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/1583)

I think you're going to have a hard time finding someone who is both good at Graphic Design and CSS.
That's why usually there are web designers and web developers. Once is right brained and the other is left.

Well, even if i can't do both, i think that i could up with a design and work with someone good with CSS to build a theme. But if you only need someone that's good with CSS, then I'm not a candidate.

Actually, web developers generally take care of the background logic. IE the server stuff. A web designer definitely has to know CSS if they want to have any chance of getting a job.
I'm decent at both. Message me and we'll see if your project is of any interest to me.

But CSS is not a programming language. The web developer is the guy working with the server-side lanugage, like PHP, Rails, Perl, Django (and some HTML), and the web designer is that working with (X)HTML, CSS and PNG. And there are many people working very well in both roles. It is a preconception that designers can't develop and developers can't design.

Yeah, I'm a little bit familiar with it.
Cascading Style Sheet...
When my husband, a programmer, teach me about it, I really enjoyed and i want to learn more.
Until now, I'm continuing to learn and differentiate about the internal, external, and inline CSS.
I found also a site that could help me.
It's www.w3schools.com

I don't know if you are talking about a blog hosted here or a self-hosted blog since you did not give the address of the blog.
I would post this question over in the wordpress.ORG forum as they are much more familiar with those issues than we are here. There is only one real CSS guru here, and that is devblog and he only shows up from time to time. Perhaps someone at wordpress.ORG can point you in the right direction. Before posting though, do a search of the forums there for CSS and IE and stuff like that. The question may have already been answered.
From my perspective, it is best to design for firefox and chrome since those browsers have been designed from the ground up to be compatible with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards. After getting the design to work properly, and W3C XHTML compliant, then you go back in and add in the "hacks" so that it works with the non-compliant IE6 and IE7. Microsoft has, from the very beginning, not paid much attention to the W3C standards, and that is why if you download any themes for use with wordpress.ORG self-hosted software, you will find numerous "hacks" to make the theme work with IE - both in the underlying theme PHP files and in the CSS. In fact, many designers have now gone to putting in separate CSS stylesheets just to deal with IE rather than putting it directly into their main CSS. I would run things through the W3C XHTML and CSS validators first off to make sure you are compliant with the standards - if you have not already.
