I somehow got lumbered with deploying SharePoint at work. I hate it, even the simplest things seem to be unnecessarily difficult. I've seen a few resources scattered around, but they all seem to stop short of helping me really take control of the css. Can someone point me in the right direction? EDIT I'm not afraid of the css itself...

If you've ever used SharePoint Designer, you'll know it's bad. Really bad. Is there any good replacement for that? Is there any consideration I must take account of if I want to build my own Visual Studio Add-in connector to connect to it? Anything you know that I should be aware of? I just hate the slowness and the way SPD (SharePoin...
