Hi there

I will be creating 2 website template, all 2 have the same technology but different topic discussion. I have posted 2 designs, it needs to have the same structure but in terms of the look and feel should be different. Hope I explained well if not please do ask questions if unsure before giving feedback.

Thank you for your time and help

I'd prefer the blue version. The layout and overall design looks considered and a lot more 'real-world'.

The green version isn't very good and looks like it's been thrown together in 10 mins.

The second design looks too cold I think you need to throw in another colour and not just shades of blue, the first design is good but I don't think the colours go well together.
Have a look at Adobe Kuler it's free and you can match colours together. a lot of users have created swatches of colour which I have found useful in the past.
Last thing on the blue design you have what looks like a radial gradient in the header section, move that behind the logo for more emphasis.
Hope this helps they are good designs just need a little tweak here and there

I too prefer the blue design. It looks a lot more thought out and the attention to detail is a lot better. One thing though, the cream colour on the light blue background doesn't work at all for me. Sort those 2 colours out and it'd look a hundred times better.

I would try and look at your margins, spacing and alignment, try working to a grid to keep everything aligned
