I tried using the color Pink for the first time, it was going to be more white but then I tried to go for a more older look, I really don't know what to classify it as. The theme is based around the Black Sabbath song of the same name.

I also forgot to add the comment link when making this so I fugured what to use a comment box for the first time in a while. So opinions, improvement tips?

I like it a lot. However, the navigation bar is poking out of the picture in my resolution(1440x900).
Expanding the picture would do the trick.

I like the picture but I would like to see more of the female. It's kind of weird that her face/details are being covered up, but that's just my opinion. :] I like the content box and the navigation rollovers.

Alright I fixed it the bar shouldn't be there anymore. I also lowered the opacity on the texture.

I can still see the bar. I think adding another 100-150px of pattern to the right side of the image would do the trick.
The lowered opacity looks much better, I think. :]

I like this layout a lot; you did well with these colors. I just think there's a bit too much space between the comment box and the navigation.

Thanks. Also the comment box was a lot bigger before but I just wanted to separated it from the Nav. The bar should be covered now too, I think it might take longer to load now for others.

Hmm. I like it! The only thing that irks me, and it's rather my own personal thing, is that the whole design is a little "left-side-heavy". Now, I am weird and a bit OCD about balance in everything, so, yes. Don't take it too seriously.

But I do like it. And thank god you didn't use Malibu Barbie Pink. This is a very soft pastel rose petal pink. Nice. :D

Actually, the hover-over images dont work when I do it. How it appears like its being scratched out with a black line actually has a white box around it.. anyone else seeing that?

Thanks, I actually made this to prove to someone that making female friendly layouts is WAY easier than the usual style I do.
