Dow Solar Solution

Submitter’s comments: There are so many things wrong with the Dow Solar Solution site:

1. White text on yellow background in the menu.
2. The menu is cut off (it actually says “Talk to Us“).
3. The graphics. Sweet Mother of God, the graphics. Pay particular attention to the house-thing on Dow’s Commitment to Solar page.
4. The typos.
5. If you disable JavaScript, the background disappears.

I can’t look at it longer. I’m sure you could find more.

The worst part? This site is getting more and more exposure as Dow receives awards relating to solar energy.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: Contrast, dammit. The menu is just plain evil.

The Commitment to Solar page has typos and grammar issues. Since they’ll fix the mistakes, this screenshot is proof. The home page also has 2 BODY tags.

Oh, I clicked on the bottom link labeled Accessibility Statement. I hate to break the news to you, we’ve got very serious contrast issues on the accessibility page. Oh, the irony.

Disclaimer: Back in 1970 I worked for Dow Chemical in Zionsville, Indiana, cutting up, grinding up and extracting the blood from tens of thousands of human placentas. Here’s a little-known fact: when human placentas rot, they smell just like chicken, which explains why I couldn’t eat chicken for 15 years.
