The project is a very large publishing site - thinking of implementing/organising our new css in either a traditional 1/2 sheets way or by using basic and custom sheets where the custom sheets define all the @imports for a section/page.

Using a custom sheet defining the components to be used does introduce an extra layer of presentation i.e. editing the @import list; but it does depart from monolithic css organisation.

Has anyone any experience using this type of organisation - if we do not use it we risk an extremely large css file - perhaps 10k lines. Also if we proceed we introduce more http requests and bandwidth usage..

Hi Ronald,

This question comes up about once a month on the list, and the answer is basically always "it's up to you." Organize your style sheets in a way that makes sense to you and is maintainable by your team, or whoever might inherit the site, in the future.
