Which one of my designs look more professional and which would you like to see?

**NOTE** these are both testing pages, if you click on most of the links, they will redirect you to a different layout, page cannot be displayed, etc. **

If I went with this design, the blue buttons on the left would be on all main pages. Then when you click on "my account, cart contents, and checkout it will display the products listing bar instead of the blue bars.

If I chose this one, iti will display the products listing bar all throughout the site.

So what would you prefer to see the blue photoshoped bars or the text links?? What looks more professional?

Index one is better.

It fits more better into your site. Color-wise.

Yes I prefer index !

Probably the second one, simply because the navigation is far more search-engine friendly

second one...

Thanks guys, if anyone esle has anything to add please do so.

I still have alot more tweeking to do with that left nav system (the index one) That was just the base model of what it came with. After I do a little bit of modding to it, it should fit in a little more

Well I updated a few things on the one that you guys liked best. I didn't like how it looked a little to plane, so I added a spacer image and some bullets. I also took out the 3 shopping carts link from the top black bar and replaced with home forums and register. that way people will be able to view that bar on my forums as well.

http://muscle-mustangs.com/shop/main.php <---I had to change the filename to main.php, but this is the index one

The only thing I'm not to sure of is those spacer images under each categorie. I think it makes it look bigger than it really is. What do you guys think?

I prefer the first one, better page layout.

Actually bud, that would be the second one lol. I had to switch them around. So the first one up their is actually the second one everyone likes. Looks like everyone likes the main.php file better, so that it is!
