Storefront needs a visual upgrade :) before going live. #132

Once all the basics of the storefront have been sorted out. I recommend giving a second pass at what the storefront looks like. compared to other digital shops I've been to, the way the products are displayed on Sponsus are very plain and a bit unappealing imo. So as a comparison:

Something that these guys do are:

1. Outline over each product with rounded edges with a dropshow to make it feel like a card which makes it pop out from the BG

2. They have more color to break up the black and grey. So E-junkie has their 'add to cart' in green. When you mouse-over the products on Gumroad the cart icon is blue. The pricing is in a different color on Ejunkie. While Gumroad has the star system, which is yellow and the price in its own little shape. So pretty much more visual interest with each product.

3. This is extra, but mousing over each product to make it pop out a little bit. So there is a bit of interaction with

4. BONUS. allowing users to assign their own background or choose from different styles if you don't trust users lol. I don't really need super customization for my shop, but having my own BG will make my shop more unique and appealing and it seems like Gumroad has that option..

POLISH/BUG: If I don't have multiple images, there shouldn't be arrows on the products. It feels a bit distracting and could be interpreted as a bug if users try to scroll and nothing happens cause there are no images.
