    Hi,

    I just finished a first draft of CityPics' main page redesign and would really love to hear other opinions.

    The site can be found at http://www.citypics.org/index_new.php.

    Thanks for all your comments.

    I think the pink background should be changed to the same red shade as your logo's icon, it'll match the color scheme better.

    Anybody else a comment please?

    I'd be also interested in comparative comments in terms of the current design and the shown draft here.

    Clean site - I like it, except for the orange you're using for the Google ads, it doesn't contrast well with the pink background.

    Thanks! I know the Google color doesnt fit at the moment.

    What about http://www.citypics.org/index_new.php?color=930000?

    Sorry, but I think you missed the point of the site. It is not about high gloss tourist agency photos but only about everyday's life. You also seem to have looked only at three pictures.

    I got some other color suggestions and added a poll to the thread to see whats the most popular color.

    http://www.citypics.org/index_new.php?color=F0C0B3 (the original color of the new design)
    http://www.citypics.org/index_new.php?color=F1CBB1 (less pink)
    http://www.citypics.org/index_new.php?color=930000 (dark red)
    http://www.citypics.org/index_new.php?color=00003A (the color of the current design)

    If you prefer another one please post it here and you can also try it out by appending the HTML color code to http://www.citypics.org/index_new.php?color=
