I'm afraid design has the same problems as copy--I, at least, find the design of your sites below as off-puttingly 'salesy' as the copy. I think we might be dealing with a hipsterish phenomenom of acquired aversion to anything with mass-market effectiveness, which I'm not sure how to deal with.

I wouldn't use similar design to those two sites - It doesn't fit the brand or message of lesswrong. Like I said, I envision something more like the large white spaces and slick graphics of Apple.
