What
The Center for Remediating Ugly Design is hosting a fund-raising bash to further its mission of assisting the victims of bad web design and raising awareness about this tragic and pervasive problem.
All developers and designers interested in this poorly-understood issue affecting all levels of society are invited to join us and enjoy pizza, beer, chocolate and door prizes.
Why
Every minute thousands of innocent users are being visually assaulted by web pages that should never have seen the light of day. Otherwise kind and caring individuals are uploading invalid HTML, unsupported CSS and programs riddled with erroneous logic and security holes to the Internet without a thought as to the harm they are doing to unwitting web visitors or the trauma they are inflicting on professional web developers.
CRUD seeks to shed light on this issue through intervention and counseling programs, education campaigns and initiatives to introduce legislation to put an end to the ravages of bad web design.
