* What I really like are the colored shades on the boxes. The redish and 
yellowish one. The green one is much too strong, it should be no more than 
the redish and yellowish one, IMHO. Having some gray ones (like on the 
current plonetest site) along the colored ones would make those stand out 
more too.

* The main logo area I don't like so much. For my taste, it is too playful, 
and I like off-center more than straight center.

* IMHO, the dark background for the main navigation buttons is unneccesary 
and only adds visual clutter. Just the white labels on the blue background 
would stand out enough. At least I would like to see a version like that.

In any case, I really like the colored boxes, and I think that we should 
integrate that in the current plonetest site already. Also the link colors 
of the current site could follow the same color scheme than. We had orange 
links at one point in time, I don't know why that was changed, I didn't 
think that it was bad.

Like some other people mentioned, I find four separate boxes along the 
bottom way to many. But I know, this doesn't have so much to do with your 
mockup, rather with the proposal from Koki. 

Best regards,
-Stephan
