I think the page doesn't gain much from the animations, particularly the mouseovers. A lot of my browsing is on my phone or tablet anyway, where those would not work. It makes me think that perhaps the same kind of approach is used in the product, which would make it mobile-unfriendly...

My opinion is that very few pages gain anything from animations, but the trend is heavily followed on Themeforest. I was enthusiastic about our first purchase from them for a project at work, but ended up fighting and tossing out the garbage for 2 days.

Does anyone know a theme marketplace with serious designers?
