It's really needed!. > - Do you like the logo? I quite like it. The only part of if that doesn't convince me is the 'python' typeface. I think the rest of the logo is very elegant, but the chosen font for the python part is not that good because you mix a flat and very geometrical design with a 3D one. Maybe something without the 3D effect and just laid out over the CAD part is much better. Also, the bridge photograph should be right aligned, with the border of its containing white box. > - Do you like the first design? yep. If you are willing to take the effort further, maybe it would be better having the contents splitted in a bunch of pages. For instance: About pythonCAD (main page), Getting PythonCAD, Development, Links. And screenshots should be intermixed with those contents. Users should see what's PythonCAD, how does it look like and its features since the very first moment they get into the website. > - Any suggestions? I don't like the green background for the console texts. It's a bit too dark and not on the same range of colours than the rest of the design. Maybe something like PaleTurquoise1 (#BBFFFF) fits better. > Please, be frank in your answers.
