First off, I am not a web-designer. I have done relatively basic HTML and Java when producing some intranet sites in a former role, but I wouldn't know where to start if you asked me to make a gobsmackingly-brilliant website. However, I am a pretty efficient surfer I think, and like many of you navigate through several sites simultaneously.
When I am surfing the web, I find it useful to right click links and go for "open in new window"... sometimes I use SHIFT plus left click. And sometimes you want to link to a picture here so right click is useful then for bringing up the "Image properties" which includes the URL of the image.
So why is it that there are people out there who are intelligent enough to make a sort-of working website but don't realise that I could just use the "View Source" option in Internet Explorer to determine where I can link to the picture from here, or download the files they are hosting and so forth?
Because when I do that, I end up seeing the terrible cut-and-shut html code they have "written", gazing in awe at their terrible web-design.
Then I wonder if they had spent more time learning HTML and not pasting in code that says "Copyright Gimpy Rubbish Website 2006" everytime someone has the sheer audacity to press the right mouse button, if they had just spent that time refining their own website... would it not be a better world.
