All Punked Up specific news…
We re-designed our store! If you’ve been following this newsletter, you know by now that I’m into a minimalist approach to how I want the News site to have (especially for it’s upcoming re-design). That idea got me thinking about the store too. I always want things to be easy to navigate to make it a better experience for the user. I felt like the store design was a bit busy and crowded in some areas—so I changed it!
I feel like, now, the site is cleaner and less busy. I hope you all dig it as much as I do. I want to add a couple features soon to make it even better and easier. Those features would be making the header (logo and checkout icons area) sticky once you start scrolling down the page and adding lazy loading (when you scroll down to the bottom of the page and more content loads) for the products when browsing the inventory.
Speaking of the store, we have a new shirt under $20! It’s our new Punk as F*** tee. Go on and show off how punk you really are. Check it out below.
