actually it is true, sorry. hence the desire for web standards.
and cars, buildings everything engineered is a one size fits all.
i know, i studied architecture and engineering (i just ended up a programmer). there is a 300 dollar book called graphics standards that outlines the one size fits all standard.
like i said, exclusion is the nature of the beast. it happens....not everyone will successfully use something, but the product is designed to accomodate all, not one. period.
standards, standards standards. besides, with admendments to the ADA and other 'accessibility laws', the chances of getting sued for not offering equal access is becoming a reality.
anyway. don't redesign if you don't want to, the point isn't to automatically alter it,i just want to you realize that we don't dictate to users, users dictate to us.
if you want the site used, then don't design for yourself...the things i've mentioned are basic rules of standards in web design.
and, although many of those entrenched in their false facts of the web may argue, the truth is that users don't approve of certain things.
like i said, i like the design. visually, it's great. i just want people to question the use and function of their site.
functionally, as a user, i wouldn't have stuck around.
