His websites look like every cookie-cutter wordpress "business" theme out there... Horrible, to put it nicely. His "graphic design" is no more than a few mouse clicks in illustrator on someone else's photographs. Not even sure why we're talking about this.

Because it makes people feel better about themselves to knock someone down who dares to stand out. I say good for him.

I wasn't concerned with his marketing approach.

Too bad that "professional expert" website designer doesn't even follow 960px width, the entire right side of that page is cutoff in my browser.

Maybe it's because I use windows large fonts but a pro would have considered that. Actually it seems he uses 1000px image width so right there is a lack of understanding that 40px makes a big difference in adapting design to what the market will accept.
