Abstract

From the Publisher: Buyers and consumers beware -- this book is expected to become the best-selling Web design book ever!!! Based on the hugely popular, award winning site (webpagesthatsuck.com), this beautiful four-color book effectively uses humor and down-to-Earth tactics to teach successful Web design to the masses. There is no better way to learn what works than by discussing what doesn't and then applying some common sense and practical guidance to fix them up. Expect to see authors Flanders and Willis all over the place -- on TV, on radio, in print, and even in person. They are shameless self-promoters who are quickly becoming the Internet gurus. Remember, this book is for everyone from typical Web surfers to professional Web designers. As a bonus, the companion CD is packed with valuable Software that Doesn't Suck plus all the HTML from the book.
