Comment on Good Vector-based Web Designs

Comments

I don't get it: They're all rasterized when they make it into a layout. In what way does the process matter? Why isn't this just "Good Web Designs?"

That's a very narrow definition of vector vs raster, the end result looks very different from a photograph. Vector-based drawings have a certain swoopy hand-drawn style to them, vs the realism of altering and recombining photorealistic images.

An example of the opposite style is the giant pencil in the new stopdesign layout:

It's obviously sourced from real life, rather than generated from scratch.
