A1 Great! Part lies, part heart, part truth, part garbage.

this site needs more flashing stuff

I believe there’s a special place in hell for web designers who find ways to use tables, blockquote tags, paragraphs, stylesheets AND empty, superfluous containers just to indent a price listing a few pixels from the left.

Yes, my cup runneth over with internet work. In addition to the usual, I’m updating a few pages for a cottage rental group, anticipating a marketing job that’s coming down the pipe one of these days, and rescuing my sister’s photography business from her own terrible site, again authored by somebody in Toronto who thinks menu systems that only work in Internet Explorer are probably just fine.

For the love of god.

All of this correcting-other-peoples-mistakes is showing me that my own emphasis on correct code is actually pretty rare, and even if I was going around applying styles to blockquote tags like some Dreamweaver-using jackass, I could still get work anyway, because businesses have no idea what a good website looks like under the hood.

Forget the ‘internet superstar’ tagline. I’m becoming an internet snob. And I’m OK with that.
