I'll admit that 99% of the web sites out there seem to have been designed by people who don't even know enough to use the validator. But I know from past experience that I get totally lost once the content grows to a decent size. I'm guessing there are some well-known principles of web layout and design that I don't know about. Then again, a quick jaunt through some commercial sites tells me they can't be *that* well known. :-) Also, It'd be nice to see the usual web niceities (eg: custom logos and buttons), which I'm totally incapable of generating. -- T.E.D.
