Personally I like websites to be simple - that way you notice the art and not the flashy bits. Like I prefer a plain wall in a home so that the eye is drawn to the art and not the wallpaper pattern. Otherwise where's the point in HAVING art? Simple websites are also easier to navigate through, and that way you stay longer. The one thing that can totally stop me from even trying a site - is if annoying music starts up as soon as the front page appears. Drives me up the wall!
