Both are really playful, but I enjoy the 2nd style more, a lot of text though, cut some of that down. Good start so far.

I enjoy both your designs. Very whimsical especially with the swirls and your type choice which is really nice! Would love to see more photographs though about "students" or "degree programs" to help relay the message that you're in a .edu website. Good start!

Yikes! Holy wall of text, Batman!

You certainly succeeded in making them girly. Both are pretty strong, but I think I slightly prefer your second one. Both are clean layouts that are easy to read and navigate. Both have well layed out visible buttons that instantly establish a navigational hierarchy. They both have a very art decco feel with some slight nouveau influences. Both have a good presentational area for imagery or other content. Where your second pulls ahead of your first is that the background clashes less with your content. Also, with grayscale-ish designs a little bit of color goes a long way.

Dial back on the text or, at the very least, format it. Text allowed to grow wild like that will smother an innocent website in less than 20 minutes. More pictures as well please.

So girly.

I'm loving the illustrations in the background, but I'm going to have to agree with everyone and say that you need to have way less text, or at least make your text box have two columns? Make sure that your text isn't long enough to bore the reader, but isn't short enough to brake apart what you're trying to communicate. :D Great job regardless!

I'm liking the second one because it seems to appeal to more broad range of an audience than your first. Although, GRC is for everyone and gender who choose to pursue it, the first one seems too specifically oriented... if that makes sence. But I like your graphics and color choices in both designs... but again I do like the second one btr ^-^v

Wow these both look awesome. I really like the second one because the colors are for girls and guys. I'm loving the TMCC mountain image in the background and the colors are really nice as really. My suggestion would be to reduce the amount of text you have in the text box.

I like the circles on the left side, mountain on the right. Ferns can come in from the lower left. Color scheme from the 2nd.
