Viseca contact form #1: A yellow checkbox?

Viseca contact form conventions checkbox design

When I first saw this contact form by the Swiss credit card company Viseca, I thought “A yellow checkbox? What is that supposed to mean?” Then I figured out that this possibly means it is selected. A selected checkbox should look like a checkbox and not like a yellow box. This is a well-known convention across the web.

When there are good conventions, don’t be creative and invent a new fancy design that will irritate your customers.
