I can personally attest to the success of visuals on Harvey's website, shown in the images above.
Harvey bags are sold in the specialty stores that I merchandised at Disneyland,
and their fans are literally fanatical about using their web store interface -
it's there that they find out about new product releases, prints,
and special events like the ones we held at Disneyland...

every bit as much as walking into a B&M boutique does.
It is immersive and experiential design, and it WORKS.
