From what I can gather Argoth, you are annoyed that I commented on his spelling? Its not hard to spell/speak english "properly". It makes everyone's lives much easier if you do though. I had to reread your post a few times because I had no idea what you were saying. If you had taken the time to spell correctly, and present yourself in a clear manner, we wouldn't even be talking about this. Does it take me any extra time to spell correctly, and replace my u's with you? Not really. I have yet to see somebody who typed slowly enough that typing an extra TWO letters made the difference.

Its ironic though isn't it? In an article about initial impressions, he didn't even bother to run spell check. I see misspelled words, and I immediately think unprofessional. Alot of programs come with spell check, it is not a huge thing to ask that he spell checking his "article". And its just a nicety, if you want me to take my time to read it, please make take the time to proofread and make sure spelling/grammar is good?

I know, I read the exceptions page. I just wanted clarifications on points. Incidentally, by labeling google's use of whitespace as "excessive" you rule out its use as an exception! (Because exceptions will not be google. Google is your example. )

I want to add something that I forgot to mention. Using themes, best to use an external style sheet, will cause the person to not change their feeling from the initial appearance every time they switch pages. That is an actual explaination of why it makes a website look better when using a common theme on every page.
Not quite sure what you are saying? (Not a native english speaker)
