This is the website of ADG-FAD, Art Directors and Graphic Designers Association from Spain. Aren’t designers supposed to know how to design a website? Check it for yourself www.adg-fad.org
Some “killer” features of this website:
- No DOCTYPE at the beginning of the document
- Page is laid out using Tables!!
- Some parts of the are not rendered in Firefox
- Contents font size is 10px wich makes the web hard to read in any decent resolution monitor
- Usage of GIF for titles and section headers instead of correct XHTML markup
- No titles for individual pages. All pages are titled adg-fad.org which is an acronym and the URL

Jo també estic completament d’acord… no hi ha manera de fer entendre als dissenyadors “de paper” que Internet és un altre mitjà i que han de pensar el disseny en funció de les potencialitats i limitacions que té.
Simplement apliquen els criteris de sempre… Per exemple, et posen una tipografia impecable, però l’han de convertir a imatge perquè volen justament aquella… i resulta que la guarden amb JPG a una qualitat miserable!!! Quin desastre!!!
Aquesta web encara té “perdó”, ja porta uns quants anys i encara no hi havia gaire consciència del que comentes… Però el que em fa por és que si la canvien tenen tots els números perquè sigui pitjor!!!
Només cal veure el cas de terminalb…
You won’t belive what they asked me to do… It seems like a joke but it’s real. I made the poster and invitations for an expo, and the asked me to send them the invitation for e-mailing, all they wanted is that the width wasn’t higher than 27 cm.
LOL
Not to mention http://www.fadweb.org/
800×600 Flash website that on load opens a pop-up which I never saw as it was blocked by my Firefox
Try to read some of the contents in a cell-phone like text area!!
