I Hate Site Builders. - Mainly things like piczo and freewebs.

Dagoth Nereviar
Loads of people i know, who have very little HTML knowledge, use Piczo. And now, anyone with one of these sites, think they have the best websites ever! All it usually is pictures and text randomly thrown on a page, with very-hard-to-navigate links. Freewebs is basically the same. I'm not sure about my space, I think it uses HTML, but I hate myspace websites.


Anyways, back on the point, does anyone else know people who use piczo and think they are the best website builders in the world? I tried to teach one how to HTML, got stuck on tags dry.gif

I'll admit those "things" are very dodgy, especially those ones from the likes of geocrud, tripod and so on... What probably annoys me more is those in myspace that add animated gifs as a background, have rather annoying MIDI music (rather than mp3s).. then claim they are a web designer although it's very hard to read the text of some myspace blogs.

I think that website builders are stupid. With html its custom. Not all tacky and the same piece of crap.

the freewebs site builder sucks but you can write your own code which is usefull for absolute beginners who only need html and javascript to begin learning. My space is possibly the worst invention ever in the whole world. it doesnt deserver the three seconds of time it took to create the idea IMHO. and piczo....oh dear god! its good for one thing wasting time. Their guestbooks are possible the worst ive ever seen. and the people that make them generally have nothing to do with their lives so they make a tacky looking cheap and stupid website that makes no sense atall and as already said the navigation is not even worth having there and the fact that they TRY to protect the pictures from being copied by fail miserably makes it worse. Ive never used any of the sitebuilders above properly although i did start with a freewebs template and modify it. Ive only seen the outcome of silly little people begging me to sign their blogs or whatever. These and other site builders do nothing good for this world and shiuld be banned. Some PROPER wysiwyg editors such as fireworks are ok because theyre not like site builders with silly templates and uncustomizable layout and design.

I hate them too!

I hate those kind of sites-- I too code my stuff on Notepad and then upload them on FTP. It's muchoooo faster anyway, and some of those sites have icky Ads.

MySpace uses HTML, but half the profiles have such malformed CSS and HTML that it can crash your browser, or even your computer if its old.

I don't use website builders because I can't stand templated designs. I use Macromedia Dreamweaver to create pages so I don't have to memorize all that XHTML standards stuff and I have easy control on how my site looks on web standard browsers..

I knew that it had HTML somewhere, but do the users handwrite it themselves, or is it like the dreamweaver buttons? I'll have to look into it sometime...

Ugh... I remember I used to use those a lot when I was 8. Thankfully I moved over to the light and studied HTML. I was an enthusiastic coder at 9... I'm not sure about now. tongue.gif I forgot most of what I could code. The annoying thing is, people think they have the best sites ever. I also had this classmate who was trying to get into the world of websites... She had an overly glittery page, slapped on some animations and made HeR teXt hard to read. I've been coding for a long time, and I've learned by experience what kind of website people like... :/ Maybe I shouldn't have told them I have a website. When I do, they usually end up making their own, and they don't do it well.

I have a freewebs site, and you can set it so you have to enter all your own coding, and you can use html/css on piczo too

You can also write your own html for myspace.

Out of every glittery covered site on piczo or freewebs, there is always a more professional one with html etc.

I've been using site builders for about 5 years now, because not everyone has the money to buy their own domains and ftp programs and things like that.

I taught myself the html/css aswell so some of us freewebers or piczoers aren't half as bad as you all say we are.

Yeah, I hate them too. I don't know much HTML, but I'm learning. And I found those annoying specially since they are full of glitches and some don't even support HTML and end up showing nothing! They ****, but they are OK for begginers, if they don't know HTML then at least they can have their own crappy, but they think it rules site.

I Hate Site Builders.

I would happen to disagree.
I think it's a good idea for teenagers to start with those Piczo and Freeweb sites. It's a good start to learning html. Although I agree that it isn't used that much, teenagers learn how to make rollover links, picture effects and much more. In fact allot of these kids end up moving to a hosted server like Godaddy and become extremely good at coding.
I also think that it's a good idea that they take pride in their work. Remember these teens are still growing and giving themselves an identity, and Piczo is a great way for them to express their creativity.
Remember most of these kids are doing this as a hobby, and maybe to make a little money, but they aren't doing this as their professional day job. Piczo and Freewebs are a fantastic start to these future leaders in in technology

So give the poor kids a break.
Thanks

I think Piczo and others are fun, they inspire creativity. It doesn't matter what the kids call themselves after they make it, as long as sites like those spark interest and curiosity in personalization. Think about it, from a web-designing point of view it's easy to point the finger at cheerful kids who have just made a piczo site with glitters. But among every 1000 of those kids, is one who does something useful. I made a site with Piczo a year back before I learned how to code, it became HUGE, with a forum and everything. NO CODING AT ALL.

Yes that was pretty nubish, but what can you say? If it works it works. Also, using piczo allowed me to explore new areas of coding that if I went straight into html, I might not have thought of. Web designers are the people who run the marathon, people who use piczo are the people who call cabs and ride them. But every once in a while, someone in a cab will look out his window, see the possibilities, and want to become a runner, which makes it all worth it.
