The Daily Sucker - Current examples of bad web design

The Daily Sucker

Sites featured in articles like Worst Websites of 2010 often are redesigned, which explains why some sites mentioned in my articles don't match their current look. The Daily Sucker features current examples of bad web design which haven't been fixed (yet).

If you see a site that you think sucks, email the URL to me. No personal pages (personal pages are supposed to reflect the individual's personality and artistic freedom) or web site designers (it would look like a conflict of interest), or others of their ilk.

If I think there's some merit to your selection, I may post it along with some commentary. If you know of a site that qualifies, let me know.

Submitter’s comments: Found this site by accident—I still can’t figure out what possessed them to design the navigation they way they did. It took me a few seconds to even figure out how to get past the triangles and to some useful information, like what kind of company it is, etc. Bleh! Annoying music, too!

Vincent Flanders’ comments: The home page is among the sillier home pages I’ve seen this year. It shouldn’t be necessary to say the FlashSplash page isn’t necessary, but the designers weren’t clever enough to understand this. IT ISN’T NECESSARY! I thought that each boomerang image would show a different piece of information when I moused over, but no. Once you click, you go to a home page that actually has a logical, readable FLASH menu at the bottom (don’t use Flash for menus). Unfortunately, I’m your typical marketing weasel and I got distracted by the falling squares and rectangles and then by the “click drag create” message.

The ADHD kicks in and soon I’m building little thingamajigs. What a waste. It’s like they set a trap for folks like me. Oh, it turns out they’re house builders.

A Happy and Prosperous New Year to Everyone!!
