How can you label something as spam that fast, did you bother to go to the web site? That directory is most inelegant way on the internet to find a design company, and Hundreds of people use it daily and find it useful. You list other niche directories on the List of web directories, why this one is not good enough? There are years of work and selection behind that directory, and you can make a decision in a few seconds that nobody needs it? --Falkond
- It's probably a useful and nice service, but it has to fulfill notability criteria for it to be included in an encyclopedia. --Haakon 07:23, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
