@johnww2 lol. ^_^

the web UI designers, now called UX, are idiots to the extreme. Every few years, they have new thing, then it cycles and dies out.

i've read a lot about "responsive web design". Sure, a code-saving method for UI is nice. But the very first problem is the jargon, which spread unthinking and cult-like mindset.

the other big thing from UI designer idiots, is gray on white.
