to me the design looks a little bit like hastily cobbled together. the

of course also i am not a designer, but we had some lessons in university
on this topic, so i tried to quickly stick something together.

this is far from perfect, it could use some more contrast, the fonts
should be consistent, and the bottom news area is lifeless (could use some
graphics there).

It does look good, but there is a fundamental problem with it. The original design was done so that you can get a quick overview of what Calligra has to deliver (desktop/tablet/phone/engine) and when you click on any of them you
would get a summary of each part.  That is gone in your version.

The area with the stage screenshot is meant to be a slideshow. we could show an overview of the category (eg desktop, mobile etc) on the first slide. if somebody wants to know, which apps there are, he would probably head to the 'All apps' or 'What is calligra' menu item (which should be the same font as all apps in this design btw).

I think we can take a constructive discussion about the website. :)
