I might be the only one, but I like blog layouts to be clean and simple. Easy to read. It seems that a lot of people new to the blog world (ie. a lot of myspace users) like to overload thier layouts way to much.
yeah agreed, this applied to anything web related though....if they create free sites using freewebs or geocities they tend to overload them with animated GIFs javascript and DHTML and god knows what else!
i like simple design for any website. I think when you put too much onto a page, then it takes away prominence of anything on the page. plus it usually looks like crap.
