The new site looks fresh and lets is know that Steve is not resting on his laurels and still innovating. It is great to see.

You had me confused for a bit until I read Gregg's post.  I was scratching my head thinking that the forum looks just like it always did until I figured out you meant the store site.   :)

Thanks, Dave.  It took about 6 months to get together.  It just went live yesterday.  There's still some things to fix (like some of the links pointing to the wrong places), but I think it looks really nice!  I feel like it really "ups" the brand's credibility, in the digital world.  It no longer looks "homemade."  Steve and Ben did a really nice job!

It looks so much better. It's cleaner, easy to navigate, and more professional looking. Adds a lot of legitimacy to the brand. With all of the CMS like WordPress that can automatically create professional-looking e-commerce sites without the need for HTML programming knowledge, the sites that don't look slick can definitely scare off potential customers.

We've sure come a long ways, in website creation, for sure, Kari!
