When I grow up, I want to design like this:

Why does everyone have to make fun of my website?

**excessus** · May 8, 2001, 10:03

JA! you wish... you have to be very talented to do a website like this one...

**qslack** · May 8, 2001, 10:11

Are you implying that I'm talented? Thanks! I can give you my tips or you can just hire me....I can make sites in half the time you want!

**excessus** · May 8, 2001, 10:17

oh nice! I like something in the line of http://www.worsfold98.freeserve.co.uk/gallery.html but of course, in the pure WebTek style! what is the budget?

**creole** · May 8, 2001, 10:29

It's got to be a joke. It would literally be IMPOSSIBLE to design a page with that many broken rules by accident.

Plus, look at the phone number he lists to call him about a Quote.

"Call US at our Sunnyvale Offices now for a free QUOTE! Call 1-800-DIP-SH**"

**qslack** · May 8, 2001, 10:31

Excessus, I am done. Please call me at 1-800-DIP-SH** to find out how to pick up your design.

creole: stop making fun of me

off-topic: changed my avatar! its from my comic strip at http://www.marbella.com/strip/dan1.html

It's definitely a joke. And a darn good one, too

I mean, the guy took care of every detail to make a really horrible, useless site. Misspellings..."untitled document"...broken image links...images sized wrong...

I think the only thing he didn't do was make a page that takes forever to load. But I dunno, I'm on DSL, maybe the page is 100k...

Oh, LOL, there is a poetry section...oh my gosh...

I know this thread is days old but I saw it and decided to read... Thats just hilarious... If its not a joke, I'm sorry for laughing but it reminds me SO much of my first try at web pages. Only I think I used angelfire.. haha

Anyways, thanks for making me laugh!

**lynlimz** · May 16, 2001, 04:26

**excessus** · May 16, 2001, 04:29

I don't know why I read this thread... but I'm glad. It's hilarious! I even know people who design like this! Scary huh!

**tome** · May 29, 2001, 03:13

Acctually my dog (12yr., a boxer) can do at least as good as that guy, but he doesn't charge for that
