For doing margins and paddings, should pxs. be used or ems? I always though that ems were for fonts specifically, but I have seen some designers using ems for margins and what not, which I always change back to pxs. Am I just old school, or should pxs be used here? what do you think? Thanks!

using an em means you scale everything off of the font size, which is a good thing if a visitor needs a zoomed view of it all.
It can be not so easy when you need an actually image as background or so, but in general em's should be more accessible and friendly to visitors.

So ems will change the whole page when font is enlarged/shrank by user? I have always been a stickler for keeping my design at set widths and pixels so I don't have to tear my hair out designing it :)
