As someone with a design background and now work mostly in development, something I learned about myself is that I am now convinced that every single 'web designer' in the known universe should be forced to make a full HTML site (tools of their choice!) that is compatible back to IE8 (bonus points for IE6) and 'mobile friendly'.

Plus accept that web pages are not the same as printed pages.

Wait, that's not all about me learning about myself though. Maybe my background and my current job has given me a less accepting attitude towards 'web designers' that don't learn the canvas they are attempting to paint on?

Sometimes I do feel bad about it though.

Oh! I also should have done more coding in college.

But they only pass if it's backwards-compatible to Lynx as well.


I downvoted your post on accident. I'm sorry. This meager apology is my only recourse. I hope you are able to regain the karma I recklessly took from you.


Upvoted him for you.


As long as it isn't hidden in the dead pool, I don't care much where one of my comments' karma is. BTW, it's at 30 now, so no damage done.
