Every day literally squillions of pixels are enslaved into creating web pages that confuse, frighten and irritate.
Overview
By taking us on a tour through over twenty full web site re-designs, Ben demonstrates vital pixel saving principles and practices at every turn of the page.
His commentary and full colour "before & after" snapshots of each site clearly show how the pixels were wasted and what he did to save them.
