It is nice to see how people are definitely getting away from boring whites and clear website designs. In my opinion, all the sites you have featured in the article have a much more glamorous look.

I love the dark themes – look so stylised. Here’s a Formula 1 one http://www.lewishamilton.com/ and a property one http://www.futurelet.org/ as well as our own one at http://www.blackkatz.com.

The images show up so well too.

I would be very happy if you took a look at my site which happens to be black
I won’t publish a link in the comment cause I am not looking to gain visits.
I am really asking for your opinion, if you have 5 minutes.

cheers,
Alfred

Chris,
Yes, there are definitely some down sides to a dark background. I think generally they are not good for content-heavy sites.
