Why does it seem like one of every 200 myspace layouts has rollovers? They really aren't hard to do.. so why arent people using them?

Rollovers aren't always necessary. If a designer wants to keep things simple, s/he can choose not to make them. Honestly, I feel like it's unreasonable for people to expect every or most MySpace layout(s) to have rollovers for the navigation. They are nice, yes, but not required. It kind of annoys me to have people saying "Rollovers would be nice" or "You need rollovers" on every single rollover-less MySpace DIV. There are some layouts that would look significantly better with rollovers if the navigation is especially sparse or plain, but otherwise not every layout needs them.

yeah, i definitely agree with basically what everyone has already mentioned. but i guess since they are so popular, i might put them into any future layouts.
