Travis said:So you believe the demand is more or less caused by the marketing
departments (they are the people that"pay" for the sites) driving
web development.
I also lean that way.
But I also think people
are accepting or god forbid enjoying it. Especially if they have
broadband.
Jim Higson said:This raises an interesting question: if most people enjoy the
most sites I'd consider broken, maybe the market is functioning
correctly by giving them what they want? The point of the site
wasn't to be discussed highly on alt.html afterall.
Starting from scratch they could have done anything. But they
didn't they did this (warning it may not work in your particular
browser with yor particular settings):

And I suppose there's nothing wrong with Flash etc in the right
place... I could point to sites I've created that use Flash, but if
the user doesn't have it they get almost the same experience (and no
nagging message to install it!)
Yea, but when I want someone to make me dinner, I want the chef to
add his own personal touches.
The recipe is only a guide...
Proving analogies are meaningless to prove a point...

was just built (the largest in the world I might add) Anyway, they
obviously needed a website.

adapt so well to my larger than average text size, either. It
looks sloppy and unprofessional, just like most other image
slice-and-splice designs. I'm underwhelmed, to say the least.
I sent them a polite email about my less than wonderful
experience at their site. We'll see if I get a response, and
what kind it might be.
It appears that their understanding doesn't include varying
browsing environments, and their clients' audiences don't
include anyone with a vision problem....
BTW, their new City of Atlanta web site hurts my eyes, but at
least that one seems to be usable with images off.
