They might have looked bad, but at least they were easy to navigate. I tried the current McDonalds site and had to go through a dozen screens to finally get some freaky flash page with pictograms that only show their meaning when you hover over them. These days it seems to be more of form over function than anything else.

danny_galaga:
this is all you need to know about mcdonalds (",)

TOK:
No popups, no frames, no "live" commercials to sit through, no stupid Flash games/ad's.
I'd take it back that way in a minute.  ;)

mr.Curmudgeon:
As a designer...I found myself cringing.
As a designer who prizes functionality as much as form...I find myself agreeing with you guys.   ;D

I think websites can be "well-designed" in an aesthetic sense, and still remain simple, as far as UI goes.
I think Google is the perfect example of exactly how to do that.
