CSS Zen Websites

I checked out CSS Zen Garden and I found two sites, one that I liked and another I disliked. Both used a good amount of CSS, and after looking at a lot of the examples on the site, I realized that only the text was seen in the source. Images and the entire layout was placed on the webpage through CSS.

Bad Site:
Maybe its because I am not a lego fan,
but I really disliked this example of CS. The text is
too ackward and plays with my eyes. It doesn't
make use of its whitespace in a manner that is appealing.
Also its navigation is close to the middle of the page,
which I find ackward. Overall, there is too much going
on for me to notice the text.





Good Website:
What can I say, when it comes to designing a website,
I go the more professional route, and I was shocked
after viewing this site. It jumps out of you, and the
use of colors, and creative images, makes it really cool.
I need to practice more on splicing images, and having it
look together on a website.
