Compared to Myspace which you can literally redesign near your entire page facebook doesn't allow this.  They have a strict wall/info/profile system that really can't be changed.  I think there should be more customization here because facebook gets boring to use after a while.

 While Facebook does offer some degree of customization, such as adding a profile picture, cover photo, and personalizing your about section, it is true that the overall layout and design of the platform remains consistent across all user profiles. This helps to maintain a consistent user experience and brand identity for Facebook.

However, it's worth noting that Facebook has evolved significantly over the years to prioritize content sharing, communication, and network building. The focus has shifted more towards connecting with friends, sharing updates, and engaging with various forms of media rather than personalizing the look and feel of individual profiles.

That being said, Facebook does offer features like Facebook Pages, where individuals, businesses, and organizations have greater flexibility in customizing their pages to represent their brand or identity. This allows for more creative expression and personalization beyond what is available on personal profiles.

Ultimately, different social media platforms serve different purposes and cater to different needs. If customization options are a priority for you, there may be other platforms that offer a greater level of personalization.


I totally agree with you! But I still love facebook , because a lot of people use it and its just that simple .

Yeah, I 've wanted to change my facebook look several times but couldn't. that being said, I believe that's the only real drawback of facebook. Otherwise I think that facebook is pretty cool, when compared to myspace.

I think facebook wants to remain professional to some extend and the cutomzing of the page would mean that they would lose the look of facebook on the pages.

facebook isn't very customizable but they have still been making changes to the facebook look as far as I understand to keep it fresh.

Yup, facebook isn't very customizable but I'm loving it because of its simplicity and it's lighter than myspace.
I've used myspace before and it'll take quite awhile to load its page.
I prefer using facebook more and guess what, all of my myspace's friend stopped using myspace and started using facebook.

Yes I agree to but it is better like that and the best part is most of our friends are on Facebook not on any other website's.
