Designing For Males (myspace) Options

[k33zy]

Well recently i've been recieving messages on myspace requesting male usable layouts. You know at first I figured well maybe this would be easy, but it actually is easier to create the usual girly ones. I'm sure color choice can play a major role when designing layouts for guys, but finding suitable images can become a problem. Some of these requests were wanting the usual half naked females, but how bare is too bare? I'm not sure if there is a thread on bikini pics or anything that may create the illusion of nudity. How do you go about designing layouts for guys?

^ Same here. As long as they are covered up where the major parts are (that sounded odd) I'm cool with using the pictures.

The only layouts I had to do for guys happened to be muscians and clothed people. I prefer not to use naked people or people close to that because, when I actually do create things, I have to be comfortable myself. (atleast to some exstent).

I would suggest you have them provide the pictures and the color schemes they want. You can atleast have them choose the pictures, don't make anything you are uncomfortable looking at. Once you get the picures you can easily come up with color schemes from there.
