If you add more than 10 lines of CSS to your page, someone will complain about the design.

Definitely feels like it. I frequently see people here complaining about how everything has the same boring, homogenous corporate look now, but anything interesting and original gets critiqued for lacking "visual clarity". These might be two different camps, sure, but it's sometimes sad to see the quality of discussion here.

I specifically use extensions to nuke web design and make the internet readable- which is the point of a blog.
