VPS.NET Cloud live - how do you like the design?
Hey Guys, so - it's live...well, in public beta.
How do you like the design? Is it a bit on the 'heavy' side? Or is it cool?
We like it a lot - but I can see if some may think we overdid it a bit...
Please let me have your input!

Really nice design, as per usual with your web hosts. Also I'm loving this slider thing:
https://vps.net/vps-signup
I've tested your forum in 'Internet Explorer 8' (Latest version) and it works without any error(s).
I know this is supposed to be about your design, however is there a reason you don't use PayPal or a form of payment gateway other than entering your card information. Call me paranoid, as I don't usually like submitting card information to hosts or whatever... just feel a bit safer with these companies like PayPal, Western Union etc.
Overall 10/10 on the design!Last edited by Jonathan J; 03-26-2009 at 03:41 PM.

Is this cloud VPS the same concept as Rackspace/Mosso's cloud servers? http://www.mosso.com/cloudservers.jsp
What is the difference between you guys and them. May help out little bit explaining that for people to set you a part.www.opticip.com - Optic IP LLC

I love it. Very catchy design and all the vibrant colors are very nice on the eyes.
I also noticed after a few seconds how the robots are fixing a broken node... Love that

It loaded but with a noticeable delay (2-4 seconds). The design is definitely A+.

thanks for your input - we are still looking to maybe optimize the images a bit, but I'd hate to compromise on the design as it is
it's one of those things...Ditlev Bredahl. CEO,
