Web Design is 95% Typography (2006)
- volument 7y ago> Web designers now do the job that typographers did 30 years ago Easy to agree.
- HocusLocus 7y agoChoose the right typeface, then - put too many columns on the screen so that content scrolls down for a mile and the right side is always clipped - after 'mobile' users complain, replace that with a single column with snap-into-view flibbery-gibbits that do not resemble any previous design - implement CSS rules that make menu items or content just disappear if they do not fit on the screen - remove any pseudo-static navigation or structure, all pages are now ?queries. Hopefully the search engines will abandon you and the drop in traffic will put you out of your misery. - suck the entire site into SQL and vomit everything from script parsed JSON. - the site is now completely blank to visitors with whitelist-js - I have a special folder with bookmarks to 'blank' sites. I revisit them now and then to see if they have gone bankrupt or -- possibly -- hired some old geezer that put up static pages again.
