Hi all,
I have designed two themes for my upcoming project which is for a marketing research and consulting company,
They asked me for a simple and business like theme, i will attach two themes, see which one is better , or if they are good for this kind of company or not ?
Waiting for your suggestions thnx

I like the first one.
The second one's text is hard to read.

I like the second one because it is more light... Although you could do with making the text darker.

You could ask a moderator to poll it if you want.

thnx guys for ur comments,
i think i should make the text in white one darker too,
also i have designed another theme with another colors...

No fussed on that one personally.
Lighter the better.

I think I like the gray one best as it stands now however I'd like to see the navigation go across the page as it does in the blue one.
Blue one is too blue but I like the layout. White one is nice but the blue text will be tiring since as other have said it's not dark enough.

Now are you totally confused?

thnx for ur reply, i sent all 3 themes to them and waiting for their reply, me myself like the blue and gray one more
but it all depends on client

i think the blue is the one.
the grey is boring and the white got too light text for it tho..

nice work :}

btw, how much they offer you?

Don't be afraid to ask your client what they are looking for. I so this all the time, in fact for each and every client. I have what I call my design worksheet, and I give it to the client after they sign the contract and have payed me half my money.

Basically, it asks what pages they want, any features, color preferences, sites they like, sites they hate, their competitions websites, what they like about their competitions websites, and what they don't....etc. This makes it much easier to design something that you know the client will love! Good luck!

Yes you are right, usually i do those things but this client is of those... you know kind of them !

The one with the blue background was too much. The one with the grey background just didnt look good at all.

The one with the white background could have been a lot better if you sharpened up and darkened the text. Dont go overboard with massive, shiny, reflective graphics. I couldnt tell what this company was about untill I read the statement under the menu.

Just keep things crisp, clean and simple.

marSoul · #14 Nov 2nd, 2007, 15:39

Simpler, cleaner than these ones ?! i tried to keep them as simple as possible !
but thnx for ur opinion !

Abby · #15 Nov 2nd, 2007, 15:56

Did the company give you any feedback?

marSoul · #16 Nov 2nd, 2007, 16:04

I have sent them another theme, which is done in 3dstudio, they liked it but it should be done in flash, and the problem is it will be a large final file, so the loading will be long...
So just working on another theme for them...

marSoul · #18 Nov 5th, 2007, 09:35
