Eye Candy
http://www.lab404.com/dan/ Problem: The look and feel of most U.S. corporate sites is very similar due to inbreeding. If they do it at Microsoft.com, that must be what a professional corporate site is supposed to look like, and then all sites look like Microsoft's site (or Amazon, or Ebay, or...) Solution: Stop sleeping with your cousin. Look elsewhere for design inspiration. Introduce some new web design ideas into the mix. Fresh meat, new blood for the design gene pool. |
