That I am doing. I want to get a foundation for how larger screens will handle which is easier when you go larger.

basically. You would style for 'phone' size first, then add and change for larger screens.

I'm styling for mobile and desktop. My priority is mobile ! When you say your styles need to be in the right order, you mean put the Mobile MQ above the desktop MQ, correct ?

Just changing your MQs isn't enough. Your styles need to be in the right order. Styles for mobile first. Then the next styles for wider screens. You styles are still desktop first.

    I see, you prefer min-width ?

Yes. Mobile first with min-width. Recommended by many, and speaking from experience it's much easier and less code than the other way around.

Using min-width MQs and percentage widths for structure elements allows you to accommodate many more devices "automatically". Devices of different sizes are accounted for because of the range of widths between MQs.

No.

As I stated in my reply. I'm using MIN-WIDTH media queries. They are "active" when the viewport is AT LEAST as wide as the dimension stated and remain in effect until - in this case the bg color - is changed inside another MQ. Look at my source.
