i never like the idea of styleswitcher
it just makes your site heavier

I also don’t like style switchers. A lack of consistency that’s hard to brand and a more complicated site. That login panel is really nice though. I need to work harder on getting my JQuery skills up to par; it’s real powerful.

Not sure if I agree that the site gets heavier when using styleswitcher. I`ve done that on about all of my sites, and haven`t noticed a thing. Quite the contrary, actually; not noticing any negative effects when doing it, but getting quite an increase in traffic, for some strange reason.

Some fascinating ideas here to add to my web development
11.11.2009
Well, Stylesheets switcher makes a site heavier but consider this: What if you are trying to make a web app brandable, and provide the user with the opportunity to switch theme for their best convenience? Wouldn’t be that great? do you have another example on how a css switcher would be great?
Cheers

I dont like style switchers. If you blend your ads to match your content with one colour scheme, they wont match in the other.
