Wow. Yet another reason to NOT vote republican.

To steal a quote from someone else:
It's really hard to say what's more offensive: the racism, the stupidity, or the complete lack of design sense.


Seriously. You'd think even the staunchest Republican would cringe at the thought of this guy's lawn if he lived next door to them.

It's like a third grader tried to make a political candidate.

Or perhaps a whole party of 3rd graders... http://nimcrown.us/

As if he knew a line of HTML. Generator claims to be 'Microsoft FrontPage 5.0'.

Jesus god. A WYSIWYG is supposed to prevent atrocities like this... but he wanted it this way. Dang.

This is Microsoft's preferred format I would guess.

At least, having looked at their UI and chunks of their source code, I believe this to be the MicroSoft standard.

Oh snap, I just knocked on my ass, totally left myself open for Mac trash talking, how didn't I see it coming? Bottom feeders like me gotta take what we can get I guess, even if it's an operating system hosted on geocities or xfire in 1996. Oh well back to playing spectacular video games with budgets larger than summer movies with effects almost as real, rendered in real time. Strange that such a spectacle would be available on windows platforms and not an obscure proprietary system 80% of who's market share resides in northern California.

Heh. Forgot my icon previously.

A WYSIWYG is supposed to prevent atrocities like this

Counterpoints: Geocities, Geocities 2.0MySpace.

A common claim leveled against WYSIWYG (This was used a lot when desktop publishing got a major boost in the 80s) is that, by lowering the barrier to entry, it lets those less skilled in. And you see more of, well, that.

Interesting data point: The colors are eye searing, and often what you'd find on posters on lawns for the eye-grabbing properties.
