i would like to know what you guys think of my redesign of html-site.nl
the site right now you can see at http://www.html-site.nl
the new one you can see at http://www.html-site.nl/index-html401.php
the original is in xhtml 1.0, the new one is going to be in xhtml 1.0 as well, but is now written in html 4.01 (this is just for your information not to start a discussion about it!)
probably you can mention what could be better, or maybe the original one is better.
by the way it's a dutch website, so maybe you don't understand anything about it...

I like the blue better. You could add a second color to compliment for more interest. I am getting tired of seeing the gray on gray sites lately. Seems boring to me. Blue and gray would work tho.

The layout seems easy to use. Can't comment on the text as I am english speaking but it looks good. LOL

Thats the reason why i made this new design, but where should i put a second color?

Perhaps around the text under your headers? Or maybe the nav bar to the left and have it extend all the way down? There is a large space of white before the first Javascript header. Is this on purpose? Perhaps the name of your site there with a different complimentary color?

Doesn't have to be much, just where you can spark some interesting touch. Maybe just a colorful picture would do it. Experiment!

Have fun.
