Send me his email..I'll write
Dear Rukus Peeps,
I would love to purchase massive quantities of your merchandise, but am compulsively repelled by your website and it's "cool fonts" and must click away as fast as possible. Please email me when the site isn't so horrendous as to send me screaming from my room in abject horror. At that point I will resume my business with you.
Best,
Arnot P. Huckelray, Esq.

Show us the better mock up. I'd like to see what he considers worse than that.
- jenray0
I don't have a link to it. The designer just sent me an image of the mock in an email. And he's still working on it.
Also, when I sent the mockup over, they stole some of the elements of it and used it, like the photo bar across the top, "news" section, maybe something else.
It actually was WORSE and even less usable than it is now.
- jenray0
okay here's the mockup one that is way better.
- ********0
Better, however, way better?
Well, I guess in the context of this thread.
I still think the models are fucking hideous. I am sure they are lookers in whatever bo-dunk town they are from but come on now.
Maybe it is the extreme photoshopping/ air-brushing going on too though.

Haha, oh man, I went back to the original ... it is so bad, haha.

the tshirt image thumbnails are scaled down in dreamweaver .. ie " view image" .. hence the jaggies and slow load time
- jenray0
Yeah the second designer just had to work with the busted models that were already up there.
Those pictures are so bad.
