Re: long list of reasons why not to use scrollable content!

Dear Jeff and Simon,
Yes I agree with all the points you mentioned and I wouldn't use this on
a clients site but this is my fun homepage, I live abroad and my friends
and family want to see pics and news. They are non-savvy website
surfers, most use IE, non have trackballs and fancy mouses, they
wouldn't know how to tab and they wouldn't want to print...... get my
point? Its for a targeted audience, who want something that looks nice!

So please if anyone knows how to fix it rather than tell me why I
shouldn't use it that would be nice :)

I read this list everyday and the advice is great but sometimes we just
seem to go over and over why we should not do something. I choose to do
this because it is my site that's a bit of fun and its not a
professional piece. Sometimes people do just want to know is there a way
around a problem rather than be told not to do it :)
