What I really love about most of Stripe's landing pages is that they tend to use tastefully designed vector graphics (SVGs), gradients, and animations over photos (or even worse, videos). A high resolution photo can easily take up Megabytes of bandwidth, and could still look like a blurry mess on an even higher resolution screen. Vector graphics can scale to any resolution and remain as sharp as it could possibly be, and often come at a tiny fraction of the size of a similarly-sized photo. The largest SVG in the new Stripe site, by the way, is only 10KB. Which site would you rather visit on a mobile data plan?
