Chapter 3. Beautifying the Web
Hacks 21–28: Introduction
Graphic designers have long decried the constraints of the Web. Differences across browsers and platforms destroy their carefully designed layouts. Everything takes too long to load, destroying their hopes for the user experience. And don't even get them started about fonts.
But all is not lost. The Web might look grungy and minimalist compared to a well-laid-out magazine or book, but that doesn't mean we can't take a few steps in the right direction. The hacks in this chapter focus on making the Web a kinder, gentler, more visually appealing place to visit. Well, more visually appealing anyway. Kindness and gentleness: you're on your own for those.
