My friend Dustin just asked me to find out when Dallas Comic-Con is this year. Having been following this thread, a couple of things caught my eye immediately when I pulled up the site. The first was simply that it's not well designed; I had a hard time figuring out where the information I wanted was, and several of the links don't work at all. (The main page also has autoplay, which sent me diving for my Mute button.)
The second response involved more random characters; the main program page is a picture, which means I can't enlarge the text, or highlight it, or change it in any way. My eyesight is relatively decent with my glasses on and I was *still* leaning in to about a foot from the monitor to read the names of guests. (I fell back on my usual response to bad design, Readability, but since the information was all on a picture, it didn't help.)
