Sorry to be negative but ...

Design-wise (layout of boxes, borders etc) I think the existing site is 
considerably superior
to any of the three redesigns (even with the dark background and sick 
looking olive green).

My wifes impression overall was 'so 90s ... very dated with the thick 
borders', but she particularly
disliked website-relaunch_version_2

website-relaunch_version_4 has the merit of a light background ... 
making the text easier to read,
but all three have text which is too small, and *MUCH* too crowded.  I 
think this design is trying
to do too much, and most of the stuff on it should be on secondary 
pages with large clear links from
the front page.
