www.dontclick.it

interesting, i may say

Dizzyblabla · 16-07-2005 11:15pm

I've been playing on the site for aaaggess!! and I only clicked once (I just Had to!!)

DemonOfTheFall · 16-07-2005 11:17pm

Pretty fancy site, absolute rape of system resources though. I dont think its too revolutionary really. Slightly counter intuitive becasue if you move the moust at all you lose what youre reading

mr_angry · 16-07-2005 11:41pm

Interesting idea. I found it somewhere between exciting and frustrating.

Rollo Tamasi · 16-07-2005 11:42pm

yeah i've seen that site before. I think it was mentioned on boards before. The concept is nothing new. Its just flash buttons every where with a x-y axis navigation scroller and buttons with no up states. It annoys the hell out of me. Can't use the site and therefore pretty meaningless if you ask me. Sometimes you can push design ideas too far...

ermm.... I found it frustrating and unnecessary, too fancy, but then again, I prefer windows classic theme to windows xp theme

Nobody likes XP theme

I found the site a tad annoying, as it was doing things I didn't want it to (losing text, going places I didn't want it to go etc.) - It'll never catch on! (famous last words

)

it's all bubbly and warm,lovin' it!

Meh, far too much scope for accidental error. Its like a 3D desktop, nice in concept, but fugly in reality.

does the bubblyness not kill your eyes?

evilhomer · 17-07-2005 10:22pm

It's such a messy thing if you move your mouse.
not to mention the fact that a blind person would never be able to use it!
with governments around the world becoming more strict about the level of accessibility that a website should have, this will not be considered acceptable.

also how the hell am I supposed to copy and paste anything from that site? if I click to drag accross the text I get that annoying TV snow thing for 10 seconds then it sends me back to the start of the site!!!

I can't really remember what it looks like but I hate the boring square edges of Windows classic theme. And as for the Fisherprice look... well I had this theme installed for a while
