I�m theme neutral, both look great! The biggest improvement is the homepage.

I like the blue background. Also need to see what goes better with your chosen logo.

I would go for the one without the blue frame (THE WHITE BACKGROUND ONE), the absence of a strong frame makes the content seem open instead of trapped… Thats what I think

Not much of an expert on actual design here, but i like what i see so that’s a thumbs up on the design i suppose. All the best with the installing the new design then.

Both designs are really good. But I’m a fan of white. If I have to choose between the 2, white is it.

The design is stunning – I really like it.

I think the white background is better than the blue. The blue sort of frames it in and the site does not really gain anything by it. The white looks fresher and cleaner.

I dont like the blue ‘popular posts’ block. The solid colour draws your eyes – better if that section follows the same format as the rest of the page – white with blue border.

Is it worth putting the ‘top contributors’ block above the fold where people can see it?

Really nice site!

Thanks for all the feedback guys. OK, so I understand that overall you prefer the blue background! But what do you think of the actual designs? Do you like them? Any feedback on them? At the moment it seems you all like the design and as a result I will probably be going ahead with the coding in the next few days.

I like the blue one, just makes it look really clean.

I like the blue background design, mainly because i like contrasting shades and which i think makes a page more reader friendly by differentiating between separate areas of a page.
