I prefer Kristina's. Plus - my opinion counts more because I have an art degree and am known for my impeccable taste. (i kid.)

As a totally unrelated to the design aspect of it aside - I think it was also Jacob Kaplan-Moss who said "Django is built for the web, but CouchDB is built of the web" that could be an interesting change for your tag there.

CouchDB is a database base built of the web.

Hi all,

for my taste there are to many horizontal elements. I've create a quick version with less visual clutter (just with Firebug, so there's no new CSS,
just a screenshot).

Current one:

Hi everybody,

I am the creative head at CouchOne, and Jan asked me to help out with the
redesign of the Apache CouchDB Website.

He pointed me to Klaus Trainer’s fork, and I took it from there.

https://github.com/Kriesse/couchdb_web

I implemented a more subtle color scheme and put some love into details and a fancy landing page (index.html). The content pages (download.html)
remain very simple and clear, with the focus on good legibility.

The website is tested in the latest versions of FF, Chrome, Safari, but
will probably need some tweaks to look good in IE etc., too.

Let me know what you think!
Looking forward to your feedback,
Kristina
