The visually addictive social platform, Pinterest.com, which has now become nothing less than an out an out image stocked e-Commerce store is sure a design inspiration for many other websites. The very interesting pin board style website, becoming popular, with each passing day intrigues the design bugs of many designers and website curators.
Inspiration for some, fun for others and enticing for many, design plays a very important role in depicting the nature of your website to a user. Pinterest draws attention and holds it to the level that it often becomes difficult to go off it. And many of you will agree that the simple and basic design elements of the website have made it all the more functional.
