Why do some websites look bad in AOL?
The AOL browser, by default, is set to display images in a low number of colors which is done to preserve free space on your hard drive thus increasing browsing speed. As a consequence, the real outcome is that most websites appear to be visually unappealing. Consult your manual or call America Online technical support to inquire about ways to improve the quality of web images on your particular version of AOL.
