Are You Hideous?

And by you, I mean your website of course.

Much like my home town of Philadelphia (according to Travel and Leisure Magazine), the web is an ugly place.

Don’t believe me? Spend about 15 minutes going through StumbleUpon and you’ll run in to bad design that ranges from mildly unattractive to downright offensive.

It just bothers me when it’s so easy to have a good looking, clean website, and there’s so many out there that look like they’re stuck in 1993 (re-sizable frames?!?). Do us all a favor and clean up your act. Help make the internet a better looking place.

One Response and Counting...

    Don’t count on it anytime soon Matt.

    There are plenty more people who think they’re designers in the World than there are actual designers.

    As long as the tools to create and distribute design are easily accessible (paper and Photoshop aren’t going anywhere) we’ll be surrounded by plenty of eyesores.

    If only there were a series of mandatory guides that everyone had to read before undertaking any form of design. :)
