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: It’s laid out using tables and spacer GIFs, has Flash navigation, ugly yellow gradient background, marquees…Also has a stupid name for the homepage “Launch Pad” and a really annoying pop-up when you right click, which you can EASILY DISABLE by just disabling JavaScript, but then again, that ruins the navigation anyway GRRR!

Vincent Flanders’ comments: I’ve used several astronomy sites in the past. This one isn’t quite as bad as the others because the backgr9und isn’t the black void of space with twinkling stars.

You folks have to quit using Flash for navigation. Not everybody is allowed to use it (businesses and the military come to mind). Also, there are a lot of folks who use Flash blockers to prevent those hideous Flash adverts.
