Which Design Do You Like Better?
 

I have a gambling simulator I built and I'm having the front page of the design made. Which one of the two designs do you like and what should I do to fix them to make them look better?

Do you like this design

Or this design

Also what would you do to change each of them to make them look better?

first, lighter looks better for me :)

second one looks modern, first one looks more old school

I vote second one.

I like the first one because it's clean and it indicates to me immediately that it's for online gambling. Good luck with your site :thumbsup

Second - I always prefer darker though...

I vote for second one

So, the play is to ask GFY, then go with the opposite, right? Just to confirm.

That might work if GFY ever agreed on anything...

I actually like the darker one - the CTAs are more clearly defined also

The 2nd one. :thumbsup

Do you have AB results after sending test traffic? I prefer which had the higher epc :winkwink:

Second one :thumbsup

Shhh, get out of here with an actual plan that has metric-based merit. This isn't the thread for such things. :winkwink:

Ain't nobody going to afford to have a flip turn TWO jpgs into tabled layouts with images for A/B testing!

Both are good, but if I had a choice to make would be the second one.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I like the second one better

I guess I have to pick the second one. I hate the header in the second one, any suggestions to make the header better?

second one :thumbsup

Definitely number two (the darker one)

i like number twos...

Second one

I would prefer the first one.

2nd for me...

#1 :thumbsup

I agree - I like the second one best - it's softer and much nicer looking - the first does look old school - but it also looks more juvenile - to me.

They are both nice, I just prefer the more modern one myself.

Second one :winkwink:

one, looks clean ...

#1 is clean, #1 is porn-ish.

I thought the opposite. First is flat which is pretty popular at the moment.

this one http://imghosting.info/images/11785140888884111134.jpg it looks much more to suit gambling website.

Second one, but not because of the colors. It implies better the "kiss my ass"-principle, or was it "keep it simple stupid"? Well, anyways.. the "bullet points" bring the essential stuff fast as well the other stuff is more clearer and more obvious. You know, you don't have to think "What the fuck is this site about?"

First one is by far better, close to today design trends. Clean & Clear.

Regarding the second one ... it's a good design but i don't like the grey content that blends in the dark background, gradients on fonts and buttons ... 2009 style. dull - monotonous

My vote goes to #2

both look nice but I dig the second darker theme! only because i prefer darker colors :)

yep, second one looks better

i like the look of the first one best but i can tell the second one will convert better because the call to actions are so clear

:pimp second :pimp

Second one, but make it greener

cut the lighter top and paste to the darker bottom

like the green header of the first one - fit with gaming market.
But call to action is much better on second one.

Both very nice designs. 2nd one for me!

Why not run an A|B test at the user level...
Select the one that has the highest eCPM...

Or go with the 3rd one

Second looks more modern, better in terms of design.

First theme feels more fitting for gambling (well the header anyway).
