www stands for World's Worst Website

I have searched far and wide for a site this bad. What makes it even worse is that the guy supposedly designs websites. If the home page is not punishment enough, click on the Client List for a mental finger-scrape on the chalkboard.

Oh my, and I though pages this bad where only made as jokes.

And look at those great style choices:

- Blinking Page
- Scrolling Page
- Small Business Page
- Corporate Page
- Cool Kick-A@# Page (Can it get any better?)

This really belongs here.

Lighten up guys, it's probably some 13 year-old kid trying to make a buck. I really liked the spiderweb at the beginning though. I worked for 6 years as a graphic artist so I can really appreciate this site. Looks like some the first magazine ads I did.

Actually, I think this is a joke. Look at the link for his email, and his phone number.

Weird.

It is indeed a gag webpage.

There are errors made by showing the code /FONT> in numerous places. Look at the usage, the person has used &-g-t-; instead of > on purpose.

The spellings are consistently wrong.

For a guy who doesnt know anything abt creating the webpage, he sure knows implementation of JS.

You are probably right there Static. It does take a lot of talent to make a site that bad. I don't think that I could. But you know I am a moderator in a Web forum and it is amazing how many people will ask to have their site reviewed that know nothing about building a web page. And yet the first thing that you see is that they are offering web design to their clients.

Thats gotta be a joke!!! I mean thats REALLY bad but looks like it took some effort to get that way. My eyes also still hurt from trying to view some of the "high energy" pages.

Good Lord, did you check the design tips page???!!!?!? I think I went from hyperopia to myopia and back again three or four times.

But what a great 'how not to' page.

I love the midi.

I don't think he realized that Pearl is a real language, as is Perl. To think he actually screwed up at... uh... screwing something up :P
