CSS Facelift for Facebook

The good folks over at Design Meme recently found a way to edit their profile page via CSS on Facebook thanks to the new apps feature. Unfortunatly, Facebook has already “fixed” the loophole which allowed this, but I thought it was so cool, that I had to share what they were able to do. Below is a before and after shot of the creator’s Facebook page:

Pretty damn nifty, huh? Of course, after seeing something like this, you might think that Facebook should allow us all to change our profile to look like however we want. But remember, we can learn an important lesson from Myspace here. For every nice design like that above, you’ll get 10,000 horrible layouts with animated gifs, strobing background colors, and 50 badges letting you know which character from Sex and the City the profile’s owner is most like.
