I prefer design 1, the photos make the site look less repetative than the other design, and its more colourful. It looks quite professional too, well done.

Definately design one, it has a much more unified feel to it which keeps my focus more on the content. The background does look slightly empty... but I'm not sure why. All in all, it's a great design.

I agree, design one looks somehow more complete, and the coloured background makes it look much less boring and 'sterile'.

another vote for design 1, it has so much more warmth to it, although some of the grins could be toned down a bit i think

I prefer design 1 as well. The contrasting colours catch your eye and make you read the content within them.

I have to say that when I originally viewed it on my laptop, design 2 did look better, but now I'm using my basement computer and I like design 1. My laptop, as other laptops as well, like to change how colors appear, so in conclusion from viewing it with my desktop and not my laptop, I like #1 better.

El Numero Uno - just feels more complete, although, the fact that I'm a fan of darker themes may have something to do with it... it just seems... better.

Good luck with the company!

Voted design 1. The pictures of the people above your available packages looks more natural and warming than cut out heads grinning like madmen.

I'm also a fan of the blue used in the background done well as you have. Aswell as the first ones header.

G'luck with your site!

Personally, I prefer design 2. Although design one would look a little better with a 1px border, and a blue pastel background.
