The slide design is unreadable. Is this intentional?
- geori 14y agoThis is a textbook case of bad design. The irony is off the charts since the slides are on good user experience design.
- jrajav 14y agoCalling it ironic would be a stretch - It's certainly humorous in context, but I definitely wouldn't expect anyone involved in software development, testing, design, or project management to waste their time making sure an in-house Powerpoint deck is designed to perfection.
- TillE 14y ago> waste their time making sure an in-house Powerpoint deck is designed to perfection. This is the problem, though. Black text in a standard font on a white background would be far more readable than the strange mess they've gone with. Putting zero effort into it produces results that are superior to when you try a little but don't know what you're doing.
- kstenerud 14y agoWhat's more important is that at least 90% of users (myself included) have no trouble reading the slides, and wouldn't understand you if you explained what is wrong with them. If the vast majority of your audience can't tell the difference, what's the point of it?
