It's not that looks aren't important, it's just that it's not the main thing. A guy can be only moderately attractive, but if he's smart, kind, enjoys the same thing in life as you, etc, then the attraction is raised to a whole new level. So, sure, there needs to be some degree of attraction to "spark" the relationship in the first place, but it's really not the most important factor. The only exception I can think of is if you're just looking for a one night stand or some other casual sex, then yeah, looks would be the main factor. But in terms of a long term relationship, looks aren't such a huge deal.
