which design do you prefer?

first one

1st It’s more… real.

2nd one – more readable

2nd one – the fact that blue is better ??

1st one – it has more character and is not as ‘clinical’ as the 2nd.

both are nice…..but i like the 2nd better
Its easier on the eyes

2nd is the better one
brown reminds me of……..babies HAHA

your images are a bit too large (in the posts), they really distort the page

Doesnt look right in IE.

#2, the colors are better. As for the IE users, it’s time to switch to FireFox https://www.mozilla.org/

I have firefox. I think it looks great in both firefox and N7. IE has the issue LOL.
Sooooooo many people use IE (haven’t seen the light i guess ?? ) If designers want a website that looks great to everyone….well they need to be sensitive to IE users too. IMO
