Re: To change or not to change
Somebody's been very busy...Hmmmm. Let's see. I will vote for change in favor of the 1st link. It has more of what you are striving for. It's clean, simple, and it works. I wish you the best with it.
Thnx AmaDee
This one was one of the easier ones to make.
Thnx Chris
Number 2 is actually a template from BV. You and Danny like this one but both of you guys are not keen on the color. I guess I have to take that into consideration.

My second choice as far as colors would be sky blue.
A taupe, or light sand color would allow your own pix and product the contrasting backgrounds and context to pop without being startling to viewers' eyes.....(the same principle is used for other types of sites with predominantly grey tones, but that would be too weak for your purposes, too corporate for your theme).
Blues are used for "outside" themes, and darker blues definitely "skys****er" corporate. Greys, blacks, browns, and darker greens are "professional" colors.
Template 2 (the one with radiused edges, is it?) when re-colored as suggested, would serve your purposes best (with a white or very slightly off-white background).
Again, let the simplicity be nothing more than the abscence of "fluff" and the intelligence of your site be reinforced by the focus on the natural presentation of your very purpose.
* Customers should not have to battle the subliminal "transference" of color from your site to "frame" your product as they envision it in their enviornment.
When in doubt, check out your competition: the only time you will see a departure from the color guidelines is when they are compelled to retain a color scheme chosen long before "branding" on the net was considered!

Re: To change or not to change
Hey Mike,
I like #1, with a light tan background, and a border around the pictures they would stand out, I am just not a fan of stark white and gray.
You are doing nice work though.Mike
Any excuse for non performance only weakens the charactor
