I'm not talking about old school looking ones like MSY, but ones that over indulge in ridiculous animations and make their site completely unusable and inaccessible

http://www.pizzacapers.com/

Coming soon? Cooking - isn't this the animation other sites show once you've placed an online order? How do I scroll? Why is it making bang noises at me?
No company info, nothing, it's bizarre. How do you even contact their head office to point this out :/

Bloody amateurs, pity their pizza is so good.

The types of pizzas etc launch from top and you get to shoot them. I thought it was kind of cool. Least it was something different than the regular shiny, half-gradiant glossy button style with overly friendly prozac people sitting in flash that I seem to see everywhere.

I don't like any flash based websites and other websites that are of a static size both height and width. Static width only I can live with but when the whole site is in a 600x600 iframe it makes me want to print out a real website, roll it up and beat the web developers head with it.

When will people learn that Flash is not to be used to build entire websites? What is this, 2002?

everyone knows that real business websites are filled with pics of one or more of the following

- smiling ladies with phone headsets on
- plastic looking business people from an ethic minority crossection sitting around a conference room table looking at a nondescript chart
- people standing in a data centre with their arms folded
- men under a crane wearing hardhats holding a rolled up building plan

Anything else is just amateur hour

Any site that uses Flash for anything other than video should DIAF. And once we get HTML5 and VIDEO tags, then we'll be freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

If the website is crap then don't buy from the business. Send them a message by financially ruining them.

their site doesn't even load for me.

I tried a pizza at Toowong T4's Pizza and Pasta and the pizza was actually epic!
