Compensated Nut vs. Zero Fret

OK, just ingnore my earlier question. Maybe I'm an idiot, but could someone show pics of what you're referring to?

Yes, I have heard about this "zero fret" business and would like some clarification, too.

It is a form of muting?

I'm a zero and I play bass. Sometimes I fret, but I try not to all that much. The stress gets to me.

I'm also a nut, though of late I've been feeling that I am not adequately compensated.
