Using the Web To Take Down Disney

Hey, Roy Disney and Stan Gold! You just resigned from the Disney Board of Directors – what are you going to do?

"We're going to try to take down Michael Eisner with our website, SaveDisney.com, which has the ever approachable and oh–so–sophisticated Comic Sans font!"

What Gothamist would give to know who designed and okayed the design of SaveDisney.com. We suppose it's supposed to look down home, very non–professional, but it's only looking like silly. Our little brother designs better than that (no offense, Eric).

me thinks; nay, me hopes that it was just a rush job to get something up while the press was still hot. if they are smart they are probably working on a much more professional and business like site, because a site designed with HTML 1 just isn't going to cut it.

Interesting that their disclaimer at the bottom mentions your restrictions by posting on their website, did I miss something?

And Jen; Harsh!

if you view the source you can see that the site was programmed in the oh-so-popular html editor called Microsoft Word.

i hate that font. with a passion.

they should really try something from blambot instead.
