Which sort of explains it, because unlike the early Geocities pages, the ugliness looks there as if it were done intentionally, like some avant-garde project.

myspace proves two things: people have awful instincts for design, and people don't really care as long as it works and it's free.

That is awful, but very true. I don't understand why people insist on having those stupid things which follow the cursor, or having the cursor as a crosshair style pointer. I also hate the links which change size or font when moused over.

Here's a quick fix for that:

1. Install Firefox (http://mozilla.com)
2. Install the Firefox add-in Greasemonkey (http://greasemonkey.mozdev.org/)
3. Install the MySpace Custom Style Remover Greasemonkey script (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/997)

All your problems are solved! (except the part where you're surfing MySpace Wink

)
