Version: CSSVista 0.1
"2007 Unsung Hero of the Year"
Pros: CSSVista is an incredibly useful little program. I /truly/ can't believe that no one else has made comment about it, and furthermore-- that [at time of posting] there have been less than 2500 D/Ls!
Please take my advice: If you have not tried it yet, download CSSVista right now, load up the index.html (or equiv) of your current project, and see what you can do with this thing. I think you'll agree that you've been missing out on:
1.) Productivity enhancement: - as the screenshot shows, CSSVista provides a preview of both IE and FF, simultaneously! (configurable, for either as single too)
2.) Creative Muse: note the text-area on the left. That's where you edit your stylesheet, and watch the right-panes update as you type! It has inspired me to try different little tweaks in my layout because of the sheer efficiency.
3.) Decisions, decisions, decisions: -- since CSSVista is working only on TMP files, nothing happens to your stylesheet unless you 'save-as', so you literally try out an endless amount of ideas for your layout and, if you find something you like, SAVE it! how much easier does it get?
Upon matriculation from TopStyle, you go to CSSVista. It's then when the real fun begins!
Cons: Understandibly, it wants to go on-line to solicit the company's primary product line, but there is no nag screen, and no limitations (at least on the most recent version i've used). This is very minor, and a non-issue for anyone who knows how to selectively disallow network traffic.

Version: CSSVista 0.1
"Good, but definitely not a "Hero" by any means"
Pros: CSSVista is definitely a neat little app. The pros and cons are both listed within the context of editing CSS as the browse mode is simply that...just a way to get to another page.
FUN
It is fun to experiment on temporary versions of your pages and their css files without worrying about overwriting anything.
Cons: RESIZING
When resizing, the dimensions are applied to the entire CSSVista application window. However, there is no easy method to toggle the CSS pane's visibiltiy aside from manually dragging the vertical bounds of the pane. My thoughts are that a shortcut key should exist to show/hide the CSS pane.
In addition, it is probably unecessary to resize the height. One of the primary benefits of this app is the ability to view both browser previews in split view. Since the preview panes run vertically, resizing the height of the CSSVista window as a whole provides little value.
EXPORT
Saving CSS edits to a file would be a nice feature.

Version: CSSVista 0.1
"U must have for wordpress webdesigners!"
Pros: The newest version let you see immediatly what happens if you change something in style css. When you like it, just copy the text and paste it in your wordpress theme-editor style.css
A great program.Cons: It would be nice that when I select something in the firefox screen that I could see the text what belongs to it.
Summary: A must have program!
