href="http://twitter.com">Twitter</a> is it&#8217;s simplicity. The concept is simple, the usage is simple and even the design is simple. As far as your theme is concerned you are restricted to changing a few colours and adding a background, keeping things nice and clean and ensuring the app doesn&#8217;t become a mess like MySpace did :)</p><p>These restrictions limit our creativity boundaries so if you want to make an impression with your Twitter profile it all comes down to the background.</p><p>I&#8217;ve compiled a list of Twitter profiles who have impressive creative backgrounds, which I feel stand out above the rest. <strong>Feel free to share any you&#8217;ve come across</strong> and you can also <a
