I think he mean csszengarden.com, because csszengarden.org is a site
that is taken down or don't exist yet. Today it's just showing ads
from sponsorts.

It might be an example of what you could do with css, but not an
excellant example. Most design uses graphic instead of text, and that
i bad uses of css.

To stick to one operating system is not a good position to take. In
the web bussiness you don't need to stick to one operating system.

Learn the basics of typography and color theories. Learn the tools
like html, css and server site scripting like php by your heart.

You might learn something by searching for real designers, or follow
real designers on twitter, blogs or other media. Keep yourself
informed.

There is a few sites where people submits their theoretical work like
<http://www.alistapart.com/> and <http://www.quirksmode.org/>.

Since you are new to this business I would recommend  to not use
"hacks", at least Internet Exploerer 6 (IE 6) hacks. I never use hacks
on sites I develop. It isn't necessarily. Try to figurate how to do
things without hacks. If you can't, just tell your visitors that their
browsers is not supported.

To day IE have about 10% of the marked. Don't spend to much time on
them. They will go away, as soon as Windows XP goes away. Many people
will also use different browsers, at least one other in their home. So
the figure is really 5%, by my (simple incorrect) math. To people with
IE 6, just give them plain information without the most advanced
graphic. They are already used to crappy layouts on other sides, so
they will forgive you and blame the browser.
