Amazing how many people still haven’t caught on to the fact that CSS can help them succeed online!

maybe you are misunderstanding,
all the sites are great with the shabby design style. -

Gorgeous, and here I was thinking that, based on the article’s title, I was going to see screencaps of websites done in the mid 90’s with FF0000 backgrounds and unstyled list tags…

One looks familiar: http://www.rosefu.net/ I wonder which of the two came first.

Thanks for the props, i designed the songpull site. I thought shabby was a word for “not so good,” but I think you’re saying shabby as a style isn’t bad, it’s just “shabby” as in old, worn, vintage. Correct?

Shabby is general used to describe something that was done poorly, but I understand what you’re trying to say. They are designs using a worn & rough style.
The Songpull site is fantastic! Really good content as well.
