But this particular website has driven me to re-enter the fray over bad web design. Clark’s Register is a hip clothing store (too hip for me, I was looking for a gift) and somewhere along the way, they decided that the checkout and navigation needed to be part of the overall hipness of the store.

Buttons that don’t click, type that’s hard to read, unnecessary steps, needlessly nested hierarchies and brand new interface conventions–all in one site, for your shopping convenience.

Sigh.
