Hey Mark, you're right on every count. The div.nav is a mistake that I thought I had fixed already, as for the rest let's just say it'll be fixed post-haste.
Obviously we're HUGE fans of Bootstrap over at Divshot :)
This is why HN is great. Someone (me) posts some constructive criticism, albeit snarky, and within a short time the project founder is getting feedback from Mark Dotto.
I should have also said I think Divshot is pretty cool, even if I didn't like how many nested divs I saw.
A bit unrelated, but I wanted to thank Mark and @fat, I think the president of the United States and the governor of the Universe should personally award them for creating so many jobs throughout the world. Bootstrap created lots of opportunities for people, startups, established companies and everyone in between. I really appreciate the work of @markdotto and @fat making Bootstrap. You guys rock!
* .navbar is for positioning/sizing.
* .navbar-inner is required for the gradient because `overflow: visible;` is not respected by IE when `filter` is present.
* .container is for centering the content within the navbar
No idea what .navbar-content is—that's not part of the Bootstrap navbar component. We also use a `ul.nav`, not `div.nav`.
So, close to the core, but not 100%.
