Look and Feel

No, this is not the title of a Savage garden song ....
This is perhaps the most commonly used term for people who actually make a living while creating/designing/modifying web pages. What it means is that whenyou or as a matter of fact any user opens a web page how does the appearance look to him/her. Is it user friendly, are there proper visible tabs everywhere, is it easy to navigate in the page ..... etc. etc.
This should make you understand what all I mean by look and feel. I had a very brief brush with look and feel this week, and let me tell you now I care sixpence if the signup button of my gmail page is in Arial font or in Verdana font.
It was monday morning and I was assigned a new task . There are a couple of web pages where there was a "Look and Feel" problem and i was supposed to solve it, so that it was exactly similar to what the page looks in a previous version. Easy as a pie ... just copy paste. Well not exactly . In two hours I knew exactly what look and feel meant for me. It was "Look" at the webpage in front of you and "Feel " this sharp pain inside you which was intermittently crying out WHY !!!!
Okk for starters, I want the contents of the page to have blue border. Whats wrong with the black border anyway ??? Dont know but we need blue. Okk, I search for the code and find out what exactly makes the border blue. Done!!! Okk now to refresh the screen. See, Now i have the blue border. Cool !!!
Wait.... Isnt the text at the bottom right corner in verdana font. It was supposed to be in Arial font! Okk go back to the code settings and find out where the Body style is specified. Okk Done! Time to refresh the page. Shit !!! where is my blue border ???? Now there is no border. And isnt the text colour different!!! What have I done ?
Back to the code and try to redo the thing with some mix and match ! at the end of two hours I find out that its a choice between the devil and the deep sea , ie between the border and the text. Either blue border , improper text or no border . All this for one single page . I mean would it I really care if my orkut home page has a border or not ???? I ask experienced people.... Some more RnD ... We come to know that in the new version of the tool the default labels are changed ( Bottomline - New version - no blue border and arial text together) . What the ......... !
Still move to the next page .... Waah here I get the blue border as there is no text inside . Wait, shouldnt the background be a very light grey. I mean whats the problem if it were white, But since in the requirement it is not white , we have to get grey . Some more code searching ...a lot of soul searching !

The day passed like this. Next day .. Little progress.
Wednesday morning , a mail comes asking all of us to stop working on Look and Feel Issues

Now Look at this Post and tell me how you feel !!!
