Is it just me, or are there quite a few horrendously ugly websites that are on the more well known side? Seriously, this for example. Could they photoshop her face a little more? Or get the bottle a little more jagged on the edges? Barf.

So I'm curious, what do you think are some professional or well known websites with some not-so-great layouts?

Zappos is pretty gross. You'd think for a big online shoe retailer their site would be nicer. At least sleeker. At least USER FRIENDLY.

Okay people might find it user friendly but I don't think it is simply because it strains my eyes to look at the site.

agree but zappos is pretty awesome with free shipping/returns. i had to return shoes four times because i didn't know my size.

ALSO if anybody watched that segment on oprah about zappos guy... he is pretty awesome for a millionaire. he is all about customer service and looks for employers who believe in the same concept and he has his cubicle next to all his employees, instead of his own office.
