The Daily Sucker - Current examples of bad web design

The Daily Sucker

Sites featured in articles like Worst Websites of 2010 often are redesigned, which explains why some sites mentioned in my articles don't match their current look. The Daily Sucker features current examples of bad web design which haven't been fixed (yet).

If you see a site that you think sucks, email the URL to me. No personal pages (personal pages are supposed to reflect the individual's personality and artistic freedom) or web site designers (it would look like a conflict of interest), or others of their ilk.

If I think there's some merit to your selection, I may post it along with some commentary. If you know of a site that qualifies, let me know.

FU Military Academy – An Example of Bad Web Design for May 10, 2012

May 9th, 2012 11:11 pm by Vincent Flanders

A bad website

This is the Daily Sucker

Submitter’s comments: It sucks.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: Ah, this site brings back those wonderful childhood memories of my mother yelling, “If you don’t shape up I’m going to send you to Culver Military Academy!” Culver, by the way, is a much better looking website than FU.

The FU site reminds me a lot of this site (WPTS). It’s basically mediocre; however, they have committed two interesting mortal sins: the link for their mobile site is not at the top of the page, but toward the bottom. This doesn’t even take into account they should be using media queries to send people to the mobile site. The second mortal sin is that the mobile site is really just a text site and not a site made for mobile. They’re using Un Responsive Web Design instead of Responsive Web Design.
