Get it while you can: Myspace design "sense" meets Facebook platform

Facebook has always been known for its clean, minimal look, and the fact that it does not allow users to spice up their stylesheets with their own colors or themes (a sometimes-praised, oft-lamented feature of Myspace, since it leads to many garish and hideous creations). The advent of the Facebook app platform has allowed for a much greater customizability of the user profile, but the overall look and feel remains guarded by Facebook. In fact, Facebook does their best to handicap style options on the part of app developers, and rewrites all style declarations so that they affect only the space occupied by the app itself.
