The Battle of Websites

The idea here is to beat the person posting above you by finding a site with slightly worse web design. For inspiration, see the following webcomic: OverCompensating: 'Web Design for Maniacs' - it's uncanny how those wacky sites nearly always completely fail to apply even the simplest of aesthetics.

The person who makes the first post will have to do slightly worse than Xandax' blog. Hope you can take a joke, Xan. ;)

So, first entry: Svelmoe - SQL, Technology and many other things

Beat me!

MySpace and all the other instant site networking sites don't count, obviously. :rolleyes:

I found a pretty good contender [url="http://www.virtualclassroom.org/99/vc_40/USA1/Bus_Pol/HK_Scotland/index.html.htm"]here[/url], but I hate to follow up my own posts. Pokemon Opinions takes the cake.

Sorry - but for me good web design is black/white or gray - so I don't think I can find anything which qualify :D

That one locked up my browser. You might actually remove the link from your post, or put a warning next to it. It's not an attack site I guess, but just too many popups.
Since my super-cool forum game seems to not provoke much of a response, I declare that one the undisputed winnar. :p

Strange, I was quite sure there would be a lot of posts in this thread :confused:

Ok, here's another one:

Careful with this one too, it loads VERY long.
