Websites utilize all manner of multimedia to advertise services, evolving from the classis banner ad to more advanced flash-based motion imagery. Most of these forms of online advertising are just plain awful, but the worst by far is those darned annoying Flash-based ads that spontaneously blast you with audio. I can’t even begin to count the number of times I was startled out of my chair (and underpants) late at night when loading some random webpage, when suddenly a voice comes blasting through my speakers…“CONGRATULATIONS!

I just discovered that my blog has been featured in three prestigious CSS designer galleries. CSS Mania, CSS Remix, and CSS Import have listed Elitist Snob among their galleries of creative websites, and I must say I am extremely flattered to have been chosen. Thanks to everyone who submitted my site. Be sure to visit each of these galleries and admire the work done by all the many talented designers.

In case you’re wondering why various sections of the blog don’t look quite right, this is because I’m in the middle of implementing a new tempate design, but I still haven’t fully formatted all the various Movabletype core template files.

In the meantime thanks for visting and mind the wet paint.
