Yes content is the most important but graphics is not that far behind.
Alot of people are drawned in by the look among other things like being a known name and content etc. I do not know about you but I always judge the book by its cover first.
I wonder if there are any stats or so on this type of thing.
btw yes one in three people are visualy impaired but that doesnt mean that we all are blind and cannot see graphics

hi,
one usually sees schools of fish on a dive. some designers forget that
the web is the "information" super highway. i believe that most users
of the internet are looking for information. granted graphics can
present a degree of information, but what good are informational
graphics if you're blind? i also think that too many graphics and too
little content makes a page useless and inaccessible from the stand
point of providing useful information to a visitor, especially those
with disabilities.
i think the balance between graphics, or presentation, and content,
information is well done. i think the design is clean and very
professional looking.
you go elle, keep up the good work. does the design stay together at
800x600? i know that a majority of internet users don't view pages at
this resolution these days, but i know a few people that still do; and
nothing makes me it the back button quicker than a site that has a
horizontal scroll bar.
cheers,
dwain
