"It's all very well to be really creative and "think outside the box" (gag) if what you're designing is intended to be a puzzle: a good example of that is J.K. Rowling's home page. On the other hand, creativity for its own sake just confuses users. I can think of dozens, perhaps hundreds of examples of user interfaces done badly for the simple reason that the designer decided that it would be cooler to have some spiffy art and effects than to follow any standards."
