Ok, stupid question time. I realize that this has probably been answered a bunch of times and in a bunch of ways, but bear with me.
I admit that I haven't really started to get into CSS. At this point, I use it to style things like font faces and whatnot as a supplement, but I do most of my sites in Flash or HTML.
I'm not really big on CSS as it applies to making a site super flexible. After I've spent a long time working on a meticulous design, I don't want people messing it up by scaling things or changing the layout of the content or anything. I tend to put things where I put them for a reason, and I like the idea o f them staying there.
So my stupid question is, what's the huge deal about CSS? I hear all the time about how amazing it is and how everyone needs to start using it. But when it comes right down to it, bearing in mind what I've said above, how will my websites be benefiting from it?
If I can get some honest, helpful answers, I'm definitely up to start giving it a shot.
