The 7th Circuit is notorious for its high standards when it comes to typeface choices.

However, they seem to make some blunders when it comes to web design.
  1. Main site's title is "Untitled Document"
  2. Ugly blue as the main color. Note that PowerPoint doesn't come with that color blue for templates anymore. That color went out with the .com boom.

    • Brief examples page is very Web .01 Beta.
    • Pay special attention to thier animated gif.
    • Check out that floppy disk icon. Computers don't come with those anymore
