What makes Channel art good?

What do you guys think looks good on channel art. And whose channels have your favourite channel art?
I think something simple and clear work really good something like mine. One of my favorite channel art is Yogscast Martyn's.
 
It really depends on the user, or viewer. For me, I enjoy simplistic channel art, something that isn't too in your face about things, but shows off what you're trying to show.
 
I prefer minimalist designs. I also think that using drop shadows is a must in most cases, it adds depth and is easier on the eyes.
 
I like when channel arts are nice, simple and unique. No shining unreadable text or paint splatters everywhere, just keep it nice, simple and clean
 
I think a good channel art is simple and clear. It gives some info about your channel and what type of vibe you're giving off. So I say go for a nice, cool, not-overly-saturated look.

I agree, I don't think channel art plays much importance unless it tells people what you do on your channel if it's defined or just shows of your personality. I think great thumbnails are more important to get views over channel art myself.
