The award for "worst Website to offer me a job" goes to...
e-Usman Internet Works
Oh wait... their site is down. Well, the above link is worth trying in case it comes back up. I got a great laugh out of it.

This site isn't ugly, it simply consists out of too many styles to look nice and those advertisements ruin it too. The creator simply didn't even think about using a layout and threw everything that looked nice enough for the site on one page

I agree with that. It would better if we would find PROFESSIONAL sites of real companies, for example, and criticize those.
It's always been a fact that amateurs (no offence!) most times make a site that doesn't look as good as a site made by a professional webdesigner (like those on this forum).

ouch!! the e-Usman site really is appalling. i can only imaging that their content was written by a non-english speaker. that may excuse the text, but the design?!.. what excuse can be made?? kevin, i'm almost surprised you didn't take the job, anything done to that site could only have helped.

If GeoCities sites count, http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/P...6/arranco.html is by far the worst. Anyone see it?

That geocities site should have a warning for those with a history of seizures!
Here's another professional site put in the wrong hands:
http://www.wico.net/ - Wings Communications
It's designed by the Site Shop, Inc. and the two pages look identical.

Embarrassing... That's the only way to describe this site. And this is a 'professional' site?

Maybe not the worst design, but some of the worst (arrogant) content award has to go to http://rubberburner.com/
Too Funny

That's hillarious!
Still though, when it comes to actual arrogance, the guy from 2WebSpinners.com has to take the cake...he's totally convinced that his Cold Fusion Programming and customized FrontPage Themes are a big deal!

Maybe you must be female to like this site
Anyway, this rubberburner-guy shows a lot of arrogance, that's true, but the site isn't really bad.

Will someone please tell me that the site http://www.america-intelli.com isnt as bad as these you guys have been talking about. It was my first website that I created for a company. I know its not the best but I'm still a newbie. The flash presentation was my first attempt at flash. I just want someone else to tell me...so I feel better.
Thanks

The MIDI music in the above site makes you feel like you're on some kind of wrongly prescribed heavy medication.

Can everyone say "Last updated 1991" ? At least it looks that way. Look at all those dazzling animations and 3D tables..woweee what inspiration!
<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Did anyone say 'design'? You see a lot of those sites on Geocities and that's maybe not accidently. But even worse are the sites this so called FullCircle Group has created, I'd be emberrassed to have one like those... *shivers* I think that I'll stick to my own design...

Man, I wish my web design company could have a horsey in the logo.
I want a HORSEY! I WANT A HORSEY!
TWT, Get me a horsey.
And while I'm about it, here's just a few web sites that are... well.. insanely hilarious.
-------------------------
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote/font><HR>
FROM: http://www.thewebdesigners.com/
The design of any Graphic is billed at $20 per hour.
<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Now, I don't know about the rest of you but a graphic or two takes me around a whole ten minutes to create. And besides, you could just say that you worked on the graphic for Ten hours. BOOM! $200.
------------------------
To break the subject a bit...
Another company that charges per hour for design is http://www.inferiordesign.com - I know these people in my real life, and let me tell you that they don't know the first thing about design. The Co-Founder once asked me how to change a .GIF from Indexed Color Mode to RGB color.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote/font><HR>
FROM: http://members.aol.com/naruon/NOUstart.htm
Now is a good time to discuss Mouse action. First, lets look at term use. Since the mouse can be set up to either use left or right button as the main control, we need to clarify a few things
<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
....And then you move the mouse 'up.' This is called mooovement..

Sorry...
But I think you're really wrong about this guy's IQ: only by looking at him you can tell that his IQ lingers just between 1 and 2

Everyone who uses yellow or other %$@#% bright colors as a background should be prosecuted in my opinion! (Use black, like me!)

And don't forget this:
"Award Winning, Internationally Acclaimed Webmasters"
Hmm. That goes nicely with the "Galactic" server, don't you think? I'd also like to know how these people determine Which words they are going to Capitalize throughout various Sentences. Or is it just Random?
