The managed WordPress hosting service Page.ly has adopted a new design. I’ve been playing around with it, and the design is very responsive, in that many of the elements scale but there isn’t a lot of rearranging going on. Interesting.

If you don’t remember what it used to look like, you can see some earlier versions on archive.org (though I don’t think they have every version.) To be honest, I’m not sure I like this design better than their previous one from an aesthetic point of view. But I think it does a better job of communicating information, which is always important. What do you guys think?

  1. Note sure responsive belongs in the title.. I do like the colors, but it seems a little under designed.

      Yeah if it even appears responsive it was by coincidence. Did not set out to do that.
      Less design is the new black ;) Kidding, it does need a bit more polish.

      1. Oh, well oops and apologies, that’s what happens when you take a quick look at the design in a different sized window of IE9 then say on the team blog it might be responsive?! — One of my better tricks!

        1. Well to be fair Mark, I did check out the site myself and saw that portions of it are responsive. I do my due diligence before posting :)

          1. Consider what I said null and void then! ;)
