lately in my comment box: I see,i guessing thats why you know css so well.
I've been learning CSS again and over again since I've joined MAL. Every time I make a new list design I learn CSS as a new code where I just know the basis and in wich direction I should write. I'm good with making CSS stuff but that isn't something I can give CSS the credit for. It's just that I think about my design and then search my crap together (mostly google for "selfhtml css" or go to css3.info) and try to make that what I thought of.
Making ideas, build up a concept and then searching a way to realize this is something I've learned at school and my job. first make an Idea, collect material and at the last step think about how you put it together.
making concepts is the fun part, I mostly don't work out my ideas into something CSS like and it never makes it to a final product wich would meet the public.
Maybe something I can give everyone as an advice:
just think about what you want to make out of your list without knowing an thinking if it's posible or not. After that, use the internet to find a way to make it posible.
It might be hard at the beginning not to do things cross over and you might wanna just check if its posible but that just puts borders around the creativity and your ideas. It Blocks "posible" things away, things you would never think of when you know what is imposible.
hope this helps some people being better with designing their lists.
Good luck with the css-crap and the list designs :D

I know what you're saying i study engineering and thats all about knowing what you're doing before you do it but a little prototyping goes a long way.
