Yeah, the site needs a new outfit, don’t you think? I’m bored with the photo montage nonsense. But since I’m a  WordPress user, there are some limitations to the templates and such. At least for me, not being a php-maestro. I’m old school. I’m not against innovation. Read the wix reviews, if a Flash site is your thing, have at it. Lately, though, I’m seeing so much expansive design. Huge images and flashy animations. It can pretty cool, no doubt, but are all of these sites serving their purpose.

I remember back in the day when designers has to actually consider file size. We had to think about bandwidth and server load. These days optimization is an almost forgotten art. DSL and cable modems have made sensible design passe, a thing of the past.

I, for one, mourn the loss.
