True. But surely better organised or prettier prototypes are
preferable when prototyping, as they gives a more realistic idea of a
final desired layout before the prettifiers get called in!

You can see the effect using just BEAUTIFY at 
http://www.zgus.com/zgus/products/category_item/1

I don't have the skills or time to make the site pretty. If I start to
make money using the site then I will be happy to pay someone to give
my drab functional site a really pretty look!

What I would really prefer in web2py is a hook in BEAUTIFY and other
helpers so I could bypass them and not have my changes overridden
every time I do an upgrade. Even a hook in a low level inherited base
class would be enough, if using the hook would enable the name of the
helper to be determined and to override the helper. However I reckon
this is too much to ask!
