I love searching for Mario sites on the net, but a lot of them aren't eye appealing. I've seen many that are distorted and have annoying backgrounds, and look unattended. However, I like it if the site catches my eye. For instance TMK is quite the eye catcher. It has symetry, basically, and has a nice normal background instead of a tile layout of something. Another example is the SMBHQ. That was (or used to be) an eye catcher. There's a really interesting one on the net with a totally excellent entry pic, and sprites. Many are good, but hardly any have as good layout as TMK, and as much information.
