    Thanks everyone but I'm going with smartinfos submission once it is tweaked. It was a tough decision.

    Hi PH,

    Please check your private message.

    thanks,

    Could we please get more consistency between the fonts used? None feel like they've been chosen for a certain purpose or tone.

    So far #2 has the best header by far. #8 has the best layout. #2 has the best color scheme.

    #8 - I'd like to see the logo in the header to the right and the test for the header to the right of it. And the header be 1/3-1/2 the height.

    #6 - it feels rather cramped, plus the header is too plain. The background makes it feel like a template, if you know what I mean.

    #8 - that header is like 2-3x too big. Instead of a guy shooting, I'd like to see maybe a rack of firearms representing a large ocllection. Instead of gray and white for the box headers, how about Red white and blue? And maybe separate the Features and the Installer like in #7?

    #7 & #6 - The Logo looks very out of place.

    #7 - Lose the search box, move the Social Media buttons someplace else, and replace the stock photo image with a real header that incorporates the logo.

    #2 - could you emulate something like #7 's layout with your styles?

    I have drawn (poorly) a mockup:

    http://myifsgundb.com/ifs/mockup.png

    the colors are only to show separation, NOT actual coloring -- I don't care what is colored what really.

    I am willing to deviate from this, so don't be afraid to submit examples not like this.

    This is really just to show what I mean by it looking like a static site and not a Blog.

    Oh, and a footer at the bottom, please :)

    #5 - can we make the main page wider? And a different header?

    #2- can I see different fonts in the sidebar?

    #2, I need Facebook, Twitter, RSS and Google +1 links in accordance with the Brief.

    #5 and #3 - thew logo doesn't look right there at all. You do not need to worry about using the logo if you can come up with a decent banner to use in its place; please don't try to force the logo.

    The site doesn't need to have guns all over the place - I'm not trying to appeal to 16 year old gamers, more like older outdoorsmen who collect firearms.

    The templates need to have a place for screenshots on the front page, and NO POSTS for the main screen -- it is all static content.

    #2 - also the second banner, the one below the menu, probably isn't needed, or would have to be thinner -- I'd also like to see more imagery showing the 'collecting' aspect over just "guns, guns, guns".

    #2 and #3 - Neither will give me a place for the installer badge from my current site, nor screenshots.

    The content shouldn't be posts -- posts are not used, only pages. This is for static content.

    If you look at http://MyGunDB.com you'll see the Features section and the Installer badge -- those are needed for the middle (or the equivalent) and I can not change the shape or size of the installer badge.

    The logo is here, in several file types:

    Please provide the files :)

    I have the files for the logo if anyone needs them.

    I'm thinking of the features and installer badge in the middle, one or two paragraphs of text giving a short desc of the program and a "call to action" on each page saying to DL the trial or purchase now (the installer badge will be the way to DL it and paypal will be how they pay).

    So all I want on the main page is a top with a banner, a middle with description, features and installer, and a bottom showing screenshots -- but i'm open to anything!
