Using tables may cause bodily harm

Bodily Harm

Go to site. Look at design. Not bad is it? Quite alright. Model’s quite alright too and doesn’t distract from the products too much.

Now increase text size. (use ctrl + plus or ctrl + scroll wheel up) Ignoring the fact that most of the text remains at exactly the same size, look what it’s done to the model!

So beware: using tables may cause bodily harm.

    Wslaat: You’ll only get the same problem if you don’t treat the div’s tenderly ;)

    Haha, thats pretty funny. If you quickly bump the text size up and down repeatedly, it looks like she’s talking…:P

    Mmm, sorry to leave a second comment, but that site has major acessibility issues. No alt text on any images, anywhere, the text in those images is pretty damn small as well, and the only non-image text is that countdown. Oh my.
