In many cases good design is obvious. The second part of good design is that sometimes you have to do something that isn't good design, and that is good design.

For every design rule there is an exception. The trick is to know when that exception is happening.

If you're finding you see problems with many things, perhaps you should point such things out to the author, or note them in your web journal, assuming you have one.

    I do, when they make themselves available through online discussion groups. Otherwise I don't bother them (how would you feel if you received 1000 emails telling you of the same questionable error?).

    I don't. If I ever do, please kick me off the Internet ;-)

    The second part of good design is that sometimes you have to do something that isn't good design, and that is good design.

    Putting aside logical fallacies ;-), I'd like to think otherwise. Since wanting to think otherwise hardly means its true, could you provide an example?
