The Great Design Layoff
At long (very very VERY long) last, we have gotten our collective Far Out act together and pruned out about 80 lame designs from our catalog. We overcame tremendous obstacles, including (but not limited to): laziness, lack of interest, boredom, sleepiness, a vacation to the beach, typographical errors, hiring new partners and of course, the World Cup. The product, which we are proud to present, is a lean, mean and uncluttered catalog of designs.
In addition to dropping some designs that were basically filler - no need to be coy about it now - we've also shuffled things around a good bit, category-wise. Where we used to have 20 categories, now we have 9. This is related to the design cuts, but is also in anticipation of yet another site redesign (foreshadowing!). I mean, this tired old design we have now is pushing almost seven months of age. Anyway, more on that in coming days (or weeks, or hell, maybe months, depending on the tremendous obstacles we have to overcome again).
The grand total of cool, clever and original designs we have has been bumped back down to 165, but that number will be climbing again real soon.
