I am proud to announce that after months of design and development, the new Virb website is LIVE.
It features some fun illustrations, a ton of videos, more robust content and we hope you dig it. We think it answers a lot of our customers questions and requests (and looks sharp doing it).
Awesome look and feel. Minor nit-pick though:
The faded out part of the illustration would look better in a lighter shade of the blue instead of a grey.
I would probably add a little texture on the main image...but it doesn't necessarily need it. It is interesting that you didn't put the logo in top left, I suppose you have a subtle reminder in the '+' shape. I'm all for experimentation and breaking standards though.
The most beautiful thing about this design is that you created a unique style. Which is very hard to do when most of the websites these days are glossy with too much visual noise going on. I solute you, sir. Very very well done.
As much as I like the new design I personally feel the previous one was better.
The subtlety of the previous design was something I appreciated hugely. I also liked the way the content was organized and displayed. I feel like the new site is a bit sparse and even though I love videos, sometimes it's quicker and better to scan headlines instead of watching a 4min vid.
Please don't take this comment as a negative. The new site is really good looking, it's just that I thought the previous one was something that didn't need fixing :)

@Louis Most of our best sites are done by people who've hired designers. It's really more of a CMS than a web-designer-replacement.

That looks lovely!! Very pleasant design and illustrations.
I wish the illustrations were pixel aligned however, but I feel guilty complaining about that... :/

If I had designed this, I might just decide I'd learned all I cared to learn about design and do it just like this 'till the day I died.
