Worst Websites
Daily Sucker #1 for Thursday, February 26, 2009

Submitter’s comments: Hey. I’m a high school student in a web design class and we look at and discuss the Daily Sucker at the beginning of each class period. I found this web site while looking for examples…
Vincent Flanders’ comments: I’m so glad to see that high school kids are learning about bad web design. The person submitting today’s sucker obviously learned his/her lessons well. I’ll give you an A+ for recognizing bad design.
Where do I start? The whole site is a mess starting with the 2.3Mb home page. Basically, anything that moves should be removed, the background image needs to go, and…who am I kidding?…just nuke the site and start over. I was going to suggest using Google (search for ‘carpet store”) to look up other carpet web sites as examples of what a carpet web site should look like, but the search results all pretty much suck. Carpetone, looks the best, but it has a lot of contrast issues. The Carpet Store could also be a Daily Sucker.
