I hate webdesign.
It suddenly popped up in a 320*240 px window in my mind: i <H1>HATE</H1> webdesign.

Wait.
Let me refine the target: i hate W3C’s standards and the browsers. W3C is making standards for browsers that don’t exist yet. Browsers then are released and the companies say “look, we are standards-compliant !” and two weeks laters W3C puts up a new standard that will make these new browsers obsolete.

I hate CSS 1 & 2. I hate the DOM. I hate XML.
I hate these unrealistic words that only sound VOID.

I hate older browsers.
I hate when i have to test each page in 4 browsers to check if this size of font is the same everywhere, if this image is aligned like i want it to be.

I hate IE 5.5 which allows so much crappy code that it has opened the doors to a new generation of windows-lovers bad coders. Not to mention the flourishing “IE 5 for this site” that’s to be found all around. And the JScript, which is just MS’s way to implement JavaScript (after the pitiful JavaScript capabilities of IE 3) with proprietary code.
I hate NS 6 which takes a LOT of time to load and is loaded with bugs and bloat software (thank you Mr. Netscape, but all i want is a browser…).
I hate Opera which despite announcing an incredible standards-compliance, is just crap like the others.
I hate Mozilla’s numerous bugs.

I hate Java applets. I hate the Flash plugin. I hate embedded WAV sounds.
I hate the fonts Arial, Verdana, Comic Sans and Times New Roman. I hate { font-size: 8px;} .

***
I just want to throw my text and my images on a clear screen and seeing it arranged the way i like to arrange them, according to my thoughts, not the way i CAN arrange them, according to browsers.
