As you can obviously see my designs aren't anything near Mike W's designs (designswise and pricewise) but who knows wich is converting better? Unless you tried it all you will never know who make the best converting sites wich is way more important than the most beautifull site.

You've got to look through the eyes of the surfer, not the webmaster. They only want the porn and probably don't give a fuck about the layout at all. If they wanted a piece of art they would go to the museum.

Dude no offense, but if 'pretty design' didn't sell you think this is why companies like Coke and McDonalds pour millions/billions into new designs constantly. With your theory you would buy your soda in a transparent plastic bag..yummy. Think about it
