    Avanna,

    Overall we are liking #43 and #37.

    Can you tighten the spacing at the top, so the yasnap logo doesn't push the main content area down so much? Also, we prefer our logo on a white background. Could you make the gradient be from white to gray rather than gray to white? (actually, I guess it would be darker gray to white above the logo, then back to lighter gray below the logo somewhere. I hope this makes sense.) The thin gray bar at the top of the page, I like.

    Can you apply a similar layout to #47 for your edit page? We all agree that is a great use of space. Also, perhaps look into a menu style more similar to the main navigation, on the editor menu? That parallelism might be worth exploring.

    I like the dual save button.

    One minor detail: can you remove "APP Name:" from in front of the application name? And "APP" in front of Preview.

    We aren't crazy about the traffic lights in #37, so if you have any other ideas, we'd love to see them.

    Also, as we've mentioned in general, the blue is a dangerous combo with the pink. You have used some blue text around the design.. perhaps trying a color more consonant with the yellow you use in backgrounds in #37 would be nice.

    Thanks Avanna! Can't wait to see what you bring next.

    I really like #37. This will be one of the two or three finalists that we choose a winner later today.

    Can you quickly make a version of the 'edit' page?

    Hi Avanna,

    This Mike from team Yasnap.

    This is pretty good! The page seems very clean and the organization is good. I like the yellow areas for the stats, and I especially like how you use darker yellow lines rather than boxes to offset this content.

    Some ideas for improvement:
    1) the content within the stat boxes can be improved. For example, there are call to actions within the stats boxes ("fix" and "improve"). Please look at #24 and #12 and see if you can figure out a way to make these actions more prominent. Also, you can see how kimkayaa has tried to create graphical feedback to reinforce how well the user is doing. The star system is pretty good, but I also suggested other metaphors like a traffic light.

    2) The background has some style, but for some reason it isn't completely connecting with me. I think it could have a little more detail in it, and perhaps you could quickly experiment with other color combinations.

    This design is promising, so I hope that we can get an iteration or two in before the contest ends.

    Cheers,
    Mike
