It’s seems like Firebox.com have a brand new website. It’s wider, it’s orange and at first glance a nice designed site. Technically the build leaves much room for improvement with inline css styles and incorrect semantics being used.

    Looks nice, but hardly ground-breaking, is it?

    @Jim It’s certainly not ground breaking I agree and I can’t see this update bringing in the droans but it doesn’t offend me. The previous Firebox site was immediately recognisable and ultimately proved to be a big success. I hope the new design helps them fill their objectives, increase sales and better the user experience.
