Portal Schmortal

Pixel Indus­tries have launched a new Design Portal.

1. it’s very pretty
2. it’s nav­i­ga­tion is wildly counter-​intuitive
3. most of the con­tent appears way off to the right, so far off that i can’t actu­ally see it on my dinky laptop mon­i­tor, and the window is set to noresize.
4. it’s so chock full of javascript wid­gets that little things like the back button on my browser stop working
5. half of the text that looks linky is unclickable
6. it takes an absolute age to load, even on my usu­ally speedy ADSL line

So why does Mr. Zeld­man, not exactly known for giving sites with the above ‘features’ an easy ride, affil­i­ate with them?
