i’m officially a role model for children - November 3rd, 2005
I got sent a copy of the “Information & Software Technology” the other day. Seems the Crumpler website that i designed was featured on a page describing some fundamentals of website design. It seems that one of the most politically incorrect, disgustingly juvenile and ultimately non-standard designs that i have ever created is fit for our children, and even used as an example in schools.
That chain on the right hand side of the screenshots is to flush away smears of crap that get splattered on the screen when you press the red “nards” button below it. Unfortunately it seems they were a little off track in some of their examples. These pages describe how designers use things like “tables” to help line up elements on the page when laying out a design in html. This site however, is completely put together in flash. If you viewed the source on this page you certainly won’t see a table anywhere.
But hey, it’s the right idea in principle, and it’s my design in a book, i just hope the kids don’t get too confused. It’s all about the kids.
