		<description>First I&#039;d like to say that the minimalist design has long appealed to me in varying degrees. These are some very fine designs.

That said.... seeing these samples sites back to back gives me the feeling that they are missing something. Perhaps it IS the flashy gaudiness, haphazard design, and colour schemes that are absent. While frequently unappealing, you must admit they did have character.

Could someone please tell me; Is a trend towards a cleaner presentation where content is the focus rather than any kind of superficial element ?

I am in the process of creating my own blog design. In worrying about colour schemes and required  graphics, I have come to question the necessity of such elements.

Any tips or advice?</description>

		<description>I think that saying &quot;Less is more&quot; would and should be used when it comes to web sites, I think that people go a little over the top when designing there sites, they want to put so much into it that it becomes far too busy, and for a potential visitor it becomes a nightmare to look at and they then just leave as it all too much for them, and there are those sites that do that to one.</description>
