Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

I can't tell you how much

but you can and did...

a bit discourteous for a vizier, sven!

i can't code for shit, so making an aesthetic judgement would be tactless, plenty of prettier sites, but none with the funk and grit of ET!

you can code, but don't want to offer a better version, what's with that?

it might not win any beauty contests, but CONTENT IS KING!

and for who ever it is responsible, well done for trying...

Never have, beyond pascal. But I do know how to brief coders. And you are right -'Content is king'. So why cheapen it?

i guess ET's style is 'no-style', so far, straight down the line, little fuss or muss, to distract one from the content.

your presence, and others like you are the sizzle...

No style is fine. It's a useful statement or USP in the context of all the blogs around. Wikipedia does no-style very successfully. But no-style is not a substitute for simplicity and usability.
