    Regarding design #18

    Hi Henry - I personally like this alot. Unfortunately the client is not so keen and feels it is too flashy! I really appreciate the work you have put into this design.

    Submitted design #18

    Hello Paul, here´s my second idea. It´s not a completely different concept as you see. I just respected your client´s approach and i think i got into something really interesting. (I hope so!)

    Important thing: the links are text and CSS based hovers, so it´s crawlable by search engines. Otherwise the SEO will run into trouble.

    Please advise.

    Thank you,

    Henry.

    Regarding design #11

    Thanks for your feedback Paul. I appreciate your feedback very much.

    This is a recurrent problem in client´s perception of the web. As i see, your client has a very low experience with internet. That´s quite 90% of the global market, and i can guess that your client is middle aged? He wants something more traditional.

    I was trying to deliver a strong and corporate image, that was impossible to make any confusion with anyone elses business. "Oh, this is the Debt Solutions Southwest website". Period. This is the only thing i was trying to deliver, since Debt Solution websites are quite a fever...

    So, let´s try another approach. Softly, but still elegant and simple. I think i´m beginning to understand what your client wants. I will continue my effort to reach the mark!

    Thank you again,

    Henry

    Hi Henry. Thanks for the revision. I really like how you have included the 2 different images in the header. I also really like the navigation menu..

    But unfortunately the client has some reservations about this design as follows:

    It is rather complicated in design and over elaborate with its colours. I want a simpler, more user-friendly look.

    A lot of space is devoted to the header and the menu, which is OK on the Home Page, but what will the run on pages look like? ( I have similar concerns with the other designs and would like to see a run on for these designs too)

    ---

    I am not sure if this is a show stopper with this design. It is a shame as I personally like it alot. I will leave it to you decide how you would like to proceed.

    Thanks

    Paul

    Regarding design #6

    Nice design thanks unique.

    Can you make the following changes please:

    Change the top right to say "Call us on 01823 337 471"

    The site is aimed at 2 main types of people - normal individuals who have debt problems and also companies. Ideally the home page should have an image or images that show both. The on the individual page - it would have a photo aimed at individuals (families etc) and on the companies page a more corporate photo).

    Hopefully that makes sense.

    Overall though a nice design - I especially like the way you have done the navigation menu and the faded logo.

    Thanks

    Paul

    Hello Chucky. I hope this shows some potential.

    I made it clean and objective. The enquiry form is prominent and the messages you are trying to deliver are balanced and integrated to the design.

    If my design is selected i will be delivering a W3C CSS/xHtml compliant code. The delivery time is 48 hrs and my revision policy is very flexible.

    Please advise if possible.

    Thank you,

    Henry
