Not to be an ass or anything, but isn't there some irony in "Microlancer" criticizing orignality in marketing site design while his designer site epitomizes the currently very trendy flat style? Complete with high contrast colors and a scrollspy'd comments section.

Again, not trying to be an ass. Actually I'd argue that true originality is damn near impossible to achieve, given that our ideas don't usually spring forth, fully clothed from Zeus's forehead.
