PG Uses an Image Map, Gif Bullets, and Tables for Everything

The menu is a single image mapped to urls.

He generates bullets by stretching out a gif and uses a plethora of tds for absurd purposes.

This makes me smile. And then shudder. And then smile.

That's because he hosts his site on Yahoo Store, and if I recall correctly all the old-school RTML templates generated image maps for the left-hand navigation. Shudder, RTML has brought my life a lot of pain over the years.
