When was the last time you intentionally hit the Clear button on a form? You know, that button that looks nearly identical to “Submit” and is usually placed right next to it but performs the most destructive action possible?
HTML tutorials stopped including the Clear button about a decade ago with good reason.

tumblr’s equivalent of submit-save is green and has a checkmark; the cancel is at the other end, and red. That works very well, and so do Blogger’s orange bars for positive actions, but the latter is just hideous.
