    From what I can tell, this website doesn`t use any CMS. I think that it`s a custom made website.

    Yeah, looks to be custom HTML, they probably have a unique admin panel or something for content management.

    It's pretty poorly done in my opinion.

    Holy... that page is horrible.
    To list some issues:
    View the source code - it's horribly formatted - not a major issue, but... yeah.
    139 errors in HTML validator
    Conditional comments for IE-only CSS - in 2016? Seriously?
    Illegal nesting of elements (divs within spans and so on)
    Sizes are set in px - really not recommended at all
    The page itself is a mess, and it loads (from cache, no less) in over 10 seconds - first load 13.35 seconds.

    NOT a site I would base anything on.

    Not to mention the closing </head> tag, but not an opening one. :))))
    What if the author of the page reads these posts and we are hurting it`s feelings?
    Or worse, the OP paid someone to do it? :))

    I don't care. If they made this, they should be banned from making webpages for all eternity.

    Then maybe it'll serve as a wakeup call for the fact that someone put the saddle on them and took them for a ride. I didn't even pop the bonnet before I went "what is this shit" on accessibility grounds ALONE...

    Which is why the developer(s) behind that should likely be poisoned, shot, stabbed, hung, stretched, disemboweled, drawn and quartered -- and then hope that they can be buried in secret as I'd probably defile their grave whilst at it.

    But I'm a pretty vindictive SOB when it comes to people flipping the bird at accessibility.

    ... wait, did I just mix up Vigo the Carpathian with Captain Stern?
