I didn't comment on text size because I use a 800 pixel screen width, and although it looks good to me I have no idea what it looks like on a smaller monitor with a wider definition setting.

However I strongly disagree with Maj. Stress' comment "You might consider setting a definitive width for the page". Unless you are standing behind your surfer, you have no idea what size screen definition he has his computer set at, or what size window he is viewing it in. If you fix the page width too narrow, it is going to look silly with everything bunched up either on one side or in the middle of the window, and if you make it too wide, the surfer is going to have to scroll left and right. I used to assume that the only thing surfers found more annoying that that, was a mountain of pop-ups. But I was reading a (non-adult) webmaster site a few months ago, they had done a survey of surfers, and apparently given a choice of having a page wider that their screen, or a non-blockable pop-up, the majority of surfers said that they would rather have the pop-up!

Also 'setting a fixed screen width' usually comes first or second in any list of 'worst newbie mistakes' on the Internet. And my 'professional pride' stops me from doing anything that might get my site listed as an example of a 'crap newbie site'.

I like it, has a good look and easy navigation system. You can always change the colour scheme if you want, but the basis look great.
Did you design it yourself or get a designer involved?

I like the muted colors and the clean easy-to-navigate design.

I Like the navigation buttons on the left. Kinda like how Preacher has his buttons on a Depraved site I am a big fan of that site btw. As for the color my opinion would be biased because my favorite color is blue.

I took a mainstream free template and modified it. No designer involved, since I don't consider myself a designer.

I also like the navigation. The colors, I did like them in the beginning but I am not sure that they would work for a porn site. I think I am going to change them to a warmer palette.
