I am personally quite annoyed by all the non-standards-compliant code generated by WYSIWYG editors. What is your opinion?

I don't really care. As long as the website doesn't kill my browser, I couldn't care less about how it was made. Though I can't stand those "template" websites Freewebs and such apparently offer; they all look the same, and you can tell the site owner spent no effort on the site. -o_-o Of course that doesn't matter that much if the site is just for downloading stuff anyway, but if I'm actually forced to spend some time on a Freewebs template site, it does matter -o_-o

Well It certainly wreaked havoc on my sig about a week ago, If any of you remember my Why Doesn't VBCode work in sigs thread...
However It does provide many shortcuts for Sizeing, Bolding, Italsizing, underlining and coloring. I use code for everything else.
So i put the 6th one down.

Obviously, but not only those. There are WYSIWYG editors that very well enable you to make a website that's not based on a template. And as I said, I don't care what the website owner used to create their site, but if it's based on a pre-made template, they didn't even create it.

Worse, they're printing red and blue on yellow! What, is that printer unable to mix colours at all?
