More...er..stuff

Well, I just got a copy of Macromedia MX 2004 (completely legit naturally, and yes, I know it's old). Trying it out, it's great if you like pretty colours with your code. No, I mean it, it relies on tables and Inline Frames, which I hate above all of His creations. Yes, even cloudy makes mistakes.

I was peacefully sitting at school, working on my website project when my friend tells me, "Hah! My website will be better than yours. I'm gonna use I-Frames.", upon which I proceeded to stare at him. After some staring following staring and a short rest break, I went to a helpful site that convieniently contained an article explaining I-Frames, and why they suck.

So then, that out of the way, he proceeds to tell me "See, sources are good. If it wasn't for them, I'd call you an idiot. I think I'll lay out my website with a table..." I was back to square one, but the moment I showed him how easily
tags could center on the page (align="middle") he immediately switched to them. Then the bell rang. Hopefully I got through to him.

And White Mouse. Why are frames so appealing? I know you were going to before my MSS (Mock-up StyleSheet). This time you live...next time I might be able to afford a gun...

The moral of this stor is twofold: Firstly, use
tags, second, don't think the pixies aren't there.

They are.
