It looks ok. I can understand they are trying to jump on the bandwagon with the whole "one page" theme. I think they could have made it look a bit less cluttered though.

I don't like the "tooltip" look of the submenus. The "sign in" popup should be permanently embedded in one of the sections I think.

If they'd given it a bit more functionality right off the bat, less hovering and less reading, I'd probably like it more.

If I were a first time visitor looking for a domain name, I'd probably think I've arrived at the wrong place.

To be honest, I don't like it that much. At least they haven't made the top navbar sticky, so that's good.

I liked their old design better. It was unique and memorable. The new site just looks like a generic hipster startup.

Also some of the images and colors are unnecessary and distract users from their call to action.

The domain search results suck majorly now...all washed out with light colors and I really can't tell what my result is at a quick glance. They will change this I'm sure...someone at their design team will have their feelings hurt...hahaha!

I believe they wanted a responsive design... but I liked the old design more... it was easier to navigate around without so much dark grey things around....

I still like namecheap though, amazing company.

Honestly, the only improvement that I can see is better navigation (nav bar and footer) other than that, it makes me never want to go back to Namecheap again.

The last one looked cheap (pun intended...) and this one looks like a WP theme from Elegant Themes...
