Dispelling 10 Web Myths | 6.22.2005

So I know this is subjective, but everyone has their favorite top 10 web myths. Here are mine:

1. Using web-safe colors is a requirement
2. Carefully calculate the total k size of your pages for download optimization
3. A slow downloading website is because of the site itself
4. Every site should have Flash and other "media" because it's cool
5. Sites should be designed not to scroll (scrolling is bad)
6. A site should be designed for the lowest common denominator
7. A site should look the same on multiple computers
8. An all-Flash site is a good solution
9. I'm afraid of entering my credit card info into a site
10. Color-coating sections makes navigating easy
