This is what I got (from Hans). It refers to v1:

If it stays like this, it already looks good.

The designer uses 6 colors. Less is more. Example: background color of
scroll menus -- the dark blue disturbs. Better would be 3 colors and using
"sub color tones" of these.

Font color ok.
Font size ok.
Design ok.
Line height ok. Nicely thin...

The images should all have the same left inner margin. This strikes the eye
at the first image.

That's it for now. Great that someone actually takes the initiative to
develop a new design.

These things strike the eye at a second glance [ see attached images ]:

  (1) Either all information left-align (my favourite) or all centered.
      Apparently the heading will be expanded if the gray-green text is
      longer.

  (2) These are apparently different orange tones -- one suffices.

  (3) Why two colors here?

  (4) This world is much too colorful!

  (5) See image.

Tobi
