I like the first one the blockier feeling of it seems to attract my eye more. I think losing lins head in this design is also pleasant after visiting the actual site.

AH the infamous Ling's Cars site! A very, VERY bold and courageous choice. Original site is a lot, a TRUCK LOAD to handle. I feel you're off to a good start, trying to keep it simple. The layout of the 1st (the one that includes the orange search button) is working better compositionally, but I agree that the kookiness of the second demands attention. Combined the two? I feel that you can have lots of fun playing up the bizarre aspect of your layout just because it's Ling's Cars. It thrives on it!

I think you should go for the second design. It's more visually interesting than the first one. Loving the header too and that cropped face is just so funny. You totes should go for the second design lol!

A couple of things I would like to suggest is making the type a liiittle bit smaller on your navigation bar and body copy and watch out for the margins. It's a little bit close to the edge but other than those good job!

I like the first design the blue and orange looks nice together. and the navigation buttons are nice and large. My suggestion would be to maybe add a different car image in the second page of the website.

I like the second design, the only issue I have is the size of the margins on the sides and the bottom. You can easily fill the space with the whole design and it would look a lot better. Also, you can possible give some top margin that way the header isn't touching the top. Over all, good job.

im leaning toward the first design with the large text to the left of the imagery. It helps draw your eye to things that are important.

I like ur second idea, it is more visually intresting, but I would do something about the home buttons, make smaller and more cohesive, otherwice great job on your layouts!!
