Current site : www.counters.cc
New layout : www.counters.cc/dev

What do you think of the new design ?

Thanks!

I am loving the new design. Great work! Nice colors, plain and simple. If I were you I would make the navigation on the top right a graphical menu. If you need help with that, let me know and I'd be more than willing to help.

Thanks!
I might change the menu, it's not a bad idea

Very nice. Maybe add a little padding to the left of sign up so that it balances out?

Good suggestion - thanks !

Who am I to say but here are a few points I would address:

1. in the logo: "the number one free web stats" change to:
"#1 in free web stats" (with quotes, and italics, bold - no 'the')

2. I think the girl in the photo is nice, but she may be claiming too much valuable real-estate on the home page. Also the log-in is good idea to have right there but it's huge. Perhaps you could combine the chick and the login.

3. The original site I think has more appeal to designers and individuals in the know, the new one may be more appealing to non-web professionals or companies. who's your market?

4. in general the colors in your new site look fresh and clean- but I prefer the layout of the old site, (including google and banner links at the bottom). If you added the login and changed the colors to that site, I think it would combine the best of both.

Good Luck!

P.S. I asked a question about web stats in this section - you should list your site there (if you can) so others will see it too.
