- lelandbatey 10y agoIt's an unfortunate side effect of us humans leaning so much on visual stimulus. Huge text and a large image works great at catching peoples attention, which translates into more page views. If I remove the huge image and use a very "simple" stylesheet for this article, you get a very functional but much less catchy looking page: http://nacr.us/media/pics/screenshots/screenshot--11-20-16-2016.png http://nacr.us/media/pics/screenshots/screenshot--11-20-16-2... Thankfully, there are plenty of pieces of software for presenting web pages in these greatly simplified forms.
