Let's talk about navigation "bars"
The templates always put the navigation bars on the
left of the page or the top of the page.
"If" most languages read left to right, why put them on the
left ?
"If" you want somebody to look at your page, why put
them on the top ?
Yet every template has them on the left or the top of the
page !
That's great for the web surfers,
but what about the web
site owner ?
Mine will not be on the top of the page or the left of the
page!  
Effective, Economical (yet) Enjoyable !
Your web site is your Co's commercial ! It deserves
any "edge" you can give it,
audio, animation and of course the
best in copy and design.
If these effects aren't critical why do all of
the TV commercials use them ?

I believe audio is an effective addition
to most web sites and I use it accordingly.

Question: Why do all web sites look alike?
Answer: Because they all use premade templates!
I don't like them or use them !
Below is a sampling of templates !
Cookie cutter, "wannabe" creative sites !
IF YOU HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE TEMPLATES, YOU
NEED GO NO FURTHER IN MY SITE !
I believe that templates were invented by "techys" to allow them to appear
creative while letting them put a web site together with no creative talent
only their "techy" background !!
IN THE "BEGINNING"
In the old days it was not possible to use the technical tools of the
computer..
Or the "effects" currently available due to the speed
( or lack there of ) of the personal computer...
Those days are passed !
These days almost anything goes....
If animation and audio were not effective would
TV commercials use them 100% of the time ?
Your web site is in fact your commercial and because of that
your site deserves any "edge" it can get !
Here are some animations I created
for specific needs
.
Example of a Top Cat navigation bar
Why is the type so small ? It's the template !
