    eww, you should give a warning. WARNING HOT PINK ALERT. Sorry, but damn hurts the eyes.

    Other then that, not to bad placements. I think I would have done the same. Rounded borders on the 336x I am not sure about, but if it works.

    Most of the Women Related sites that i browsed had Pink/Blue Themes. Hence the Pink Color. Initially, i used grey but it wasn't suiting the niche.

    You are the second person complaining about pink. Now i am thinking of changing it. Lets see what other peoples review is.

    About the rounded corners, its an experiment. Lets see how it works for me.

    Thanks a lot for your suggestions and comment :)

    I did give the link to a friend of mine via PM to get the shock reaction, but all they said was cool! They like hot pink they said. So, you have a good starting point. Is there a mute pink you could work with? Something that say's hot, but doesn't go over board? I think maybe it is the back-ground that did it for me. Multi tones is something you should think about for the text portion maybe.

    Looks like the start of a great site. Was looking for the adsense. Tested the search bar, but didn't work. Not active yet? I know you want to keep the search bar uniform with many sites, but maybe it would make you more money if it were more up top near the middle of the page. Or at least maybe some google links at top of page. Then put some other adsense in middle of your articles.

    My 2cts.

    And, I agree, the pink hurts the eyes. The background pink. Not the site color pinks. Maybe if you had a different color background it would make it more pleasing to look at. The way it looks right now to me, the background is competing with the foreground (text and navigations).

    Other than that, I like the site and think you have something good there. Good luck with it.

    Thanks for your valuable suggestions. I will definitely change the hot pink with something lighter. About more Ads on the top section --- I want people to navigate my site for as long as they can, if i put ads upfront i will loose traffic which i don't want to do. Inner pages have 3 content units whereas the homepage has only 1.

    Rep Added :)

    Search Bar should be working.

    Thanks electron. I just realized that I'm using an Ad Blocker plugin with FireFox. That's why I couldn't find the adsense, search, etc. :)

    Just went back, disabled the ad blocker on your site and all working great now! My apologies for the confusion on the adsense part.

    The start of a great site. Nice work. I agree that the pink is just a bit too much. Pink is fine, just not so much!
