Design points for which people should be shot:

• altering the cursor shapes on webpage via the use of CSS.
  • Don't fuck with anything that is not specifically related to your website.
  • Those cursor shapes act as visual cues for certain things, and you fucking with them fucks with established paramaters for their use.
  • If you must use them, give surfers a choice.
• Flash-based entry pages for sites.
  • Waste of bandwidth.
  • Waste of my time.
  • You're using Flash for these text-like links because...? Oh, that's right, your vanity and everyone else's inconvenience.
• Preventing the right-click selection/copying of text because you automatically assume that anyone right-clicking on your page is after your bad photography.
  • Thank you for making it next to impossible for me to quote that long piece of text.
