</div>I am having difficulty exactly parsing this paragraph.<br>
<br>
However, if it is saying what I think it is saying, I would be careful<br>
to denigrate users who care about beauty. Â (even if subjective). Â For<br>
they are 99% of everybody.<br>
<br>
A good UI goes hand in hand with a good fundamental structure.<br>
<br>
--<br>
<br>
For instance "PabbaBubble" makes candies which look and taste delicious.<br>
<br>
If they made candies that tasted great and looked like poo no one<br>
would buy them.<br>
If they made candies that look awesome but tasted like poo no one<br>
would eat them.<br>
By having both they conquer and do great business.<br>
<br>
PabbaBubble<br>
380 Broome St<br>
(between Mott St & Mulberry St)<br>

<br>
Anyways, I'm obviously babbling.<br>
<br>
Cheers to all,<br>
