Good and Bad Website Design

Here is an example of bad web design

The background is terrible it is built from cloud tiles.
The type is all odd sizes and on top of that it is moving and flashing.
Their is no colour scheme, it is all disgusting colours that don't match.

 This website is also terrible it it far too busy and it's a headache to look at the prices of the laptop are overlapping each other so it is hard to read some parts.
The price list on the site is far too complecated and jumbled it needs to be separated into a few pages.

This Site doesn't look terrible however the content is very rubbish and their is little of it.

 Here are some screen shots from Flatspot. I like the how clean this site looks and I like the layout of the pictures and the columns

Alex Steinweiss

 I found out about Alex Steinweiss when reading the Eye magazine, I found out that he was the first record cover designer. In the Eye magazine he quotes 'I got this idea that the way they were selling these albums was ridiculous. The covers were just brown, tan or green paper. I said, "Who the hell's going to buy this stuff? There's no push to it. There's no attractiveness. There's no sales appeal." So I told them I'd like to start to designing covers.
I like the third cover best because he has made the hands black and white. I think he has done this to make the harmonica stand out.
