I am not a graphic artist...and yet I have produced the multi-award winning CCC Web Site.. Incredulous? Envious? Overawed? Don't be - if you lack confidence in YOUR design skills, read TheNon-Designer's Web Book, , 2nd Edition..it will change the way you view the Internet.

Was it Benjamin Dyslalia who said to Queen Victoria, 
"I thought it was quite entertaining, actually"? 
These and other questions must and will  be asked. 

If I may strike a personal note personal notes a GOOD 
day is a day when I get lots of email - so mind you 
write and tell me what you think of my site and 
how can I improve it by making it better than it is now not that there's anything wrong with it but you might have a good suggestion or something?

You are viewing an example of how NOT to design a web page. The original Year 2000 version was posted for an enthusiastic group of NZSTA web-weaving workshop participants, in Napier New Zealand to critique. Which they did!

It has generated mirth and mock derision since April 2000 among people who got the joke.

But alas, despite THIS explanation being right here ALL that time, lots of people, like Annette Kent of Chicago, IL on 3/17/06) have been caught unaware and have used it in lectures and assignments as a REAL example of a web page that sucks. Annette wrote, 'And for a bad site I chose THIS poor lady's site. I don't even know what it's for. The links don't work and there's no navigation or purpose to it. Plus there's all this crazy design flashing at you, making it look even cheezyer than it is. It's awful.'

It's a JOKE guys, a joke ...
