    I notice that some of the new themes don't use rem units just px, is there a reason for this and if so, why?

    I'd really appreciate any comments / feedback

    Thanks

    I believe the use of rems was deprecated because they weren't being implemented industry wide as previously expected.

    I just checked "Ambiance Pro" only uses PX so I guess Susan is right (not that I don't believe you) but would be nice to hear from StudioPress wether this was the designer chose or if it was a StudioPress choice.

    I got my answer from reading a question asked of Brian Gardner on Twitter a while back 🙂
