Web Site Development - Things I Despise!

There are 2 sites, other than the one of the World Wide Web Consortium of course, which every potential web designer should visit:

http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com

and Eric Raymond's HTML hell page at:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/html-hell.html

popups, flash.shockwave (unless it's something like www.homestarrunner.com   )

too much design, not enough content.
when the whole site is in a javascript popup. *grr*

btw, here's a badly done site (on purpose) by me:
www.localhoons.tk

hope you hate it.

Can't make a website more lame than this:
http://gush-xpx.refalm.com/

Although it says refalm.com at the end, this is not my website. gush-xpx is the website of a friend who hasn't got a clue about webdesigning.

1. He uses Flash for a simple mouse-over (thanks for not supporting Lynx now, asshat).
2. He stole my PNG picture and turned it into a lame jpg (it isn't transparent anymore too).
3. His fucktard friend shows a lame JavaScript which says "This is the info about your IE".
4. He's got a stupid Flash intro.
5. The menu is Flash too, which isn't good for Lynx and requires scrolling down.
6. Lame "The Pianist" banner at the bottom.
7. Steam is cool, but there is no point in placing Steam logo's all over the place.
8. Too much "Under Construction".
9. Thanks for not including me in the "Best Friends" page.

So I was thinking about braking the DNS link.

I think you have. You posted a dead link.

This website is only online when his router is on. So it's off now. Be glad.

What pisses me off most:
Sites that ban my domain because some moron on my IP  did something fucking STUPID, thus forcing me to use a proxy to access the site!

Oh, and forum necro pisses me off too.

bluerobot layout? the least you could have done was leave his name and site in the source code  :(

http://bluerobot.com/web/layouts/layout3.html

i used his layout as the starting point for this site- http://ecsyle.com/

People have mentioned java generally, but java buttons...

Give the webmaster a gun now so that he can do the right thing!
