As you may have noticed, we’ve give the place a fresh paint job, spackled over some rough spots, and had someone with some actual taste (no offense LEAdmin) come in and renovate things.
Welcome to LowEndBox Design 2.0!
First, some clarifiers:
- The look and feel is improving but the site itself isn’t changing. We’re still here providing fantastic deals, interesting news, and useful tutorials.
- We’re still squishing some bugs and taking feedback, so definitely look at LEB as a work in progress, but one we’re ready to show the world.
So what do you think? How do you like the new look? It’s the first time we’ve really changed it since LEB was introduced over 14 years ago.
How’s it look on mobile for you? Anything you’re looking for you can’t find? Any recommendations?

Looks good, but honestly the old site design was nice too & it didn’t seem like it needed to be redone. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks for sharing your feedback, Doglin! We are going to continue working to improve the new design until it’s perfect! :)
The “Related Posts:” looks too big.
I agree, and we are going to make some changes to “Related Posts” … do you have any specific suggestions? Would you like to see 4 smaller images as opposed to 3 larger images per row?
We are also going to reduce the text size so it is not so overpowering.
We’ve made changes to “Related Posts” to reduce font size and image size.
In the past 24 hours we have made numerous improvements to the design. Feedback is highly appreciated.
I really like the new design. Great job!
