Would anyone think I was a bit strange if I blew up this image to giant size and framed it…?

For some unknown reason I find it incredibly relaxing - a bit like the white noise when you don’t tune the TV properly.

Sheesh!!

If you take a look at the site in question then some might find the actual page text to be relaxing too. WOW, what a multitude of colour they have going on there!! wink

Also this image seems to get used an awful lot and tends to get stretched longer and loooooooonger as the page goes on!!! grin

Are you going to be re-designing this site then?

Best wishes,

Mark

ha! no way… I just came across it on http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com - quite a fun site to waste time on and tut disapprovingly at mistakes that we probably all made ourselves back in the day… (though not perhaps to the extent of some of these monstrosities!)

You just totally made my day.  At first I thought “fake”, but now I’m not so sure.

On a semi-related note, I’ve seen

<FONT style="color:red;">


used in a live site before.

Wow, I was feeling bad about a recent ASP project. Everything is relative.

LOL at adding a style to a font tag.
