 asked a focus group whether they preferred it with the border at the top and the black writing, or without the border and white writing - most said without and white writing.

new edited background

 The same layout has been overlayed on a new edited background - experimenting with colour, as I feel that the original colours I used may not be as cohesive as it could be.
