Dear sulfericacid,
Many people are warning you that randomly switching the layout and look-and-feel of your site is likely to harm your site's usability. However, only you are in a position to make that call. Maybe you know something that we don't. Maybe your site is all about art and exploration, or maybe your users come to your site for an "experience" and not to find information, do their jobs, or purchase a product. In any case, it's your call to make. What's particularly interesting about your situation is that it provides a perfect opportunity for all of us to learn something. Is the common wisdom – that swapping UIs frequently is "bad" – applicable to your site? Let's find out! Let's design a simple experiment to measure the effect of random UI swapping on your users:
Sounds like fun, don't you think? When it comes to your site, care to prove the experts wrong? (Or right?) Cheers, Update: clarified wording. Tom Moertel : Blog / Talks / CPAN / LectroTest / PXSL / Coffee / Movie Rating Decoder
