Clearly, I love back-end more than front-end; making things work properly, efficiently, and securely is more much satisfying to me than making things look good. However, I appreciate a good-looking website (and anything good looking for that matter) by all means.
I also find myself going on hours-long tangents when working on solo projects to try and get my front-end looking halfway decent, because I don't want to put ugly crap in my portfolio, plus it just bothers my eyes lol.
But front-end really is a beast and it is something that I theoretically could spend all my time on. I have high standards and I don't want to stop until I have a website that looks like http://www.erated.co/ but at the same time, I often feel distracted and not as fulfilled when I am spending hours or even days learning things like advanced CSS3 or Photoshop when I could be (and I feel like I [i]should be[/i] improving my skills with data modeling, LINQ, MVC, and stuff of this nature.
Plus, at the end of the day, nobody actually sees a backend so I could spend 6 months on some super cool architecture and if it looks ugly, nobody, including my own family members could care less. That's the kicker lol.

So write an article about it. If you want impress fellow backend developers, that's the way to go, not with some shiny web page.

They won't care anyway, so why bother.

I literally rolled my eyes when I saw that site. That template is used on about 90% of sites that came out this year. It's everywhere and I'm sick of seeing it, it's just cliché now.
If you want a good looking site but don't have the skills to do it then look at template sites like Template Monster (I think), and there are many others. You can simply buy a template off the shelf for not much money then all you need to do is implement it. You'll easily find a template like erated. In fact, you'd probably struggle to find a template that isn't like erated.

I'm having to relive it again!
Any one still write WinForm application any more?

WinForm has one control that you may miss in WPF: The DataGridView control. It is easier to code than WPF's DataGrid, but since I mastered coding DataGrids - who cares?
Yes, in WPF you can have a DataGridView if you deploy it in a WinForm host, but then you cannot bind to it. In other words: MVVM is out! Bleah!
For me WinForm went out with bloomers and witch burning.
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

I have never succeeded to get my head round WPF.....so I stick to winforms when doing anything.
