Design fashions

What style of design is 'in' at the moment do you think ? There have been many - 45 degree angles, grey minimalist pixel fonts, 45 degree lines - im guilty. I think that the xhtml/css simple look is very 'in' at the mo, what do you think ?

is here to stay.

designers will eventually expand what they can do with css to produce truly awesome, crossplatform accessible sites.

I think one other trend is this style of backgounds and type ////////////////////
also whats going to be big is the selected text look ie http://www.hi-res.net/

I agree with the selected text look, also being used a lot more on mouse-overs for links now. i have started using it myself also.
Speaking of the new hi-res site = what do people think of it ? Personally I think they have done great work but Im not impressed by this site at all.

We agree on something!
This is another one of those low tech ideas that has been knocking around in good type design for decades (as was pixel fonts) - it looks very contemporary when applied to the web.
