Web design gone terribly wrong.

This site is too good not to share. I ordered food from this place tonight...it's not here yet, but hopefully it tastes better than their site looks.

http://www.brotherspizza-altspgs.com/

It looks like they downloaded Front Page Express onto their smokin' Windows 98 machine and their 6th grade child used every flashing object they could find.

Pay special attention to the graphic in the center of the page. It's but one of many errors I found before I had to give up and call to place my order.

I would not eat anything from that place! Good luck! Post tomorrow night to let know if you're still alive.

Scary stuff there. The things of web developers nightmares. I really hope I can sleep tonight after that.

I wonder if he uses CSS - LOL

Note how the scrolling text makes the page wider as it moves. In addition, they have TV ad that's about the same quality of the website:

A few others I like:

Here a link with a ton of bad websites.

That last one seriously has to be a joke. There's just no way anyone would be that cocky about something that terrible.

I would be willing to bet that most of those sites hadn't been updated (design-wise) in most of a decade. Back then it was normal to have awful designed websites, just being a cool person/organization and having a website was "wow."

Well, the food was excellent and I'm still alive. MaDDoG, you're right -- most of the pictures look like New York (it is, after all, New York Style Pizza!).

And yes, in case you were wondering, We Delivery with a $10 minimum.

Here are a couple of other similar errors that I've caught around town.

We've moved, but we can't read:

Yes, they're forks.

I took one pictures.

You must take your camera with you everywhere. Good catches.

Hahaha nice. I remember one time, this place had the sign spelled wrong. I mean having a typo on your menu is one thing, but your sign, that's just funny. It was Monglian BBQ instead of Mongolian lol.
