So, a few days back, out of impulse (it remains to be seen whether it was foolish impulse or not), I purchased a hosting reseller account. Whereby I sell hosting space to other people on a server that I rent. I'm still in the process of getting everything set up and figuring out the technical details. I'm quickly realizing that I'm probably in way over my head. heh. In any case, I made a banner and I was hoping to get some feedback on it.

It's surprising to me as a amateur designer and programmer how poorly designed a lot of websites are. I got a phishing email today that linked to some website that sells some kind of information package about making money online. Just for the fuck of it I visited the website. I was immediately struck by it's poor design and lack of any php whatsoever. There wasn't even a decent contact form. Just an image that brings up the mailto. (Your default email program). Worst of all though, the package they were selling wasn't even protected. By simply adding /member/ to the end of their domain name, I was able to access the page where you can download their file without even having to log in.

And, good Samaritan that I am, I sent them an email pointing out this fatal flaw and offering to fix it. For a moderate fee. Who knows if they'll respond, or if anyone is even running that website. But I've done my civic duty.
