Hi Dudes,

Great to see something moving. I like design 2 as it reflects most of 
TYPO3's identity. I don't like the pull down hierarchical menu. I feel 
you have to be able to see most of the possible choices and browse 
through the site to find your way. It seems most obvious to me the 
secondary navigation would be positioned on the left side. There will be 
enough space left there to add some extra blocks for features or what. 
Although I would prefer to keep it as clear and clean as possible. If 
you have a XHTML template ready I would like to help you to get it as 
standards compliant as possible and fit for every device you can view a 
webpage on. Don't forget the print stylesheet. I could make one if you 
want.

One thing I noticed: The headers for the news should be a little more 
prominent. As this is the most important content on the page. I would 
suggest to make this a <h3> and remove the underline.

This design seems ok for colorblind people. Checked it with
