I know exactly what you mean. My sister recently created a web site
for her dance studio using some cheap web authoring package she found
at Best Buy. The sight looks fine if your browser settings are all
default, but sucks as soon as you change your font size. Its not her
fault; she's a dance instructor, not a computer geek. She trusted
the WYSIWYG application. The application sucked. I'll be spending
some time over the next few days reimplementing her web site.
BTW, you can check it out at http://www.JoyWorksDanceArts.com to
see what I mean. If it looks good at first, just try increasing
your default font size.

She is a really great dance instructor and her students all seem to
love her, so if by some crazy chance you live near West Salem,
Wisconsin and are looking for a dance school, be sure check it out.
I think she just started new class registration.
