> I’ve had to be pretty firm in the past with marketing teams that want to embark on a rebrand, and say however the design looks, it can’t include modal windows or animated carousels. And I think people think you’re weird when you say that.
Some small businesses create websites for branding only, and get their business exclusively offline. They just want to have a simple, static site to say "we exist, and we are professionals", so they are fine with the latest in web design.
- yakshaving_jgt 2y agoRight. What I’m suggesting is their simple static site should probably just show the content they want to show, rather than write extra code [and add additional complexity] which makes that content gratuitously slide around the screen.
- TRiG_Ireland 2y agoCarousels exist because everyone wants their pet project to be on the home page, and no one at the company has enough willpower to put a stop to that nonsense. No one actually likes the things.
