This is my Style of website - Is it dated?

I am looking at the new trend of websites, and I am not feeling the love. I am also looking at websites where I do feel the love, but they seem to be dated.

Here are some images of the websites I like. They seem to grungy and/or quirky

Note: The links may be broken, as these websites maybe out of date.






Note: Here is a link to an online tutorial to the kind of website style i like: http://psd-files.com/blog/how-to-create-a-vintage-photoshop-file/

Here are some images of the websites which are more modern - 2013 style. Not liking these very much.

Hmm...I think I need to compromise.

This might be a compromise:


Creative Mass” a Stunning One-Paged Website Template (PSD)

This is a template, but I do like the look of it. It definately is not grungy like the "older" websites I like. I am a little bit unsure which way to go. I may even decide to just go with the current trend and simply accept the fact that this is how websites are being designed these days.

Note: http://inspiredcore.com/ - The actual Inspired Core website is kind of cool too. It is white though.
