I do it this way.

for (; {
}

and:

if () {
}
else {
}

(same for methods, i.e. not KNR style (mostly because VS.NET doesn't support it))

If I have one statement in the block then I use no blank lines, e.g.

for (; {
  this.DoSomething();
}

If I have more than one, then I use blank lines too, e.g.

for (; {

  this.DoSomething();
  this.DoSomethingElse();

}

I always close curly braces without a blank line. I have a heap of other rules too..

I use 'two spaces' instead of tabs for indenting (religiously).

Example:

public void SomeMethod(Int32 someParam) {

  if (someParam < 10) {
    return;
  }

  for (Int32 i = 0; i < someParam; i++) {

    this.DoSomething();
    this.DoSomethingElse();

  }
}

My way is of course the best, and all other ways suck!
