It's a nice change. I like the subdued pattern in the black background.The site has a bit of a Victorian look to it now.

Sorry. They were there when I copied and pasted them. I checked to make sure they were there. I don't know if someone removed them and I don't know any other way of getting them into the site. I sent an email with them in it to the site. Hopefully I_Love_her will read it and insert the images. He had asked for suggestions for a NEW Poll awhile back.

The code for the pix is still there, but you should upload them to some image hosting service or find them in ED.Com and use them to insert the images.

They are images that are cropped to show her face from my gallery of her photos. Finding specific images from your gallery here will not be practical for me. I do not know what names you have given to these images. Therefore I would have to go thru your entire gallery of thousands of photos. Also, I'm afraid I don't know how to upload them to a hosting service. I have them in an email which I sent to your site yesterday. You should have them by now. You have my email address on record. We have communicated by email previously. Sorry. That's the best I can do. If you can't make that work choose your own images which fit those emotions. We can vote on them.

Being a Web designer myself, I actually don't like the new redesign. The older design was easier on the eye and not to much going on. Plus it looked a lot more professional where as this looks a bit tacky to be honest. Sorry if I offend but it is only my opinion. :s

The problem with having a design with such high contrast but with medium fonts and curvy motifs at the same time, things just seem to blend into each other. 

Personally I would make it similar to the older site.  Sorry again. :s

I would make it warmer too.

No offence at all, the previous design was a theme right out of the box with some little changes, this one is a complete rebuild of one.
The contrast may be too high yes, think its only with the plain text as it is pure white.

What do you suggest to change in this one to make it look better?

It is hard to find a good design idea that doesn't border on the tacky. Problem with Victorian design is it really doesn't work well on the web, I have only seen a couple of sites it works with. I feel a forum really need to be quite modern in its design or you can get lost very quickly.

Although you could mix both for them to be happy, when I get sometime I will post a wee graphic to show you what I mean.

Woow!!, prety good for a quicky lol.
The background and the header look good but as for the menu, we are trying to keep the design flat and dark.
Ok well, i think i got to lower the contrast and took off some borders in the forum to make it lighter.

Well, I think I have to get used to it ;-)  It's a new design, the old one was somehow "warmer", less irritating for the eye.  But I personally like evolution :-)

I think you should change the way the "Hottest Pic" feature works. If neither pic is hot I hit refresh to get two new pics. I feel only the hottest pics should get my vote. I had to hit refresh about 20 times just to get a pic that was truely hot. And if you look down the list of voted for pics that top the list, you know that there are much hotter ones that never seem to come up to get a vote. The way it works now is just choose one of two not is this the hottest one.

Just my thoughts, love the site anyhow....... she is the most beautiful woman alive today!

does it really take 40 images (2 photos per page * 20 refreshes) to find a hot photo of her???

Hello

The new style is not so bad, but I prefer the old one!
Why can't we see the pictures at the original size like before?

Ok, used your idea of the transparent background in the sidebar for the main content, gave it a lil brigth to reduce contrast, it works?

Yeah I see there's a very subtle change in the background of the side panels it does look better from me.

I've not visited in a while, and the new design came as quite a shock. Frankly, at first I wasn't sure I was at the right place. But after a few moments adjusting expectations and acclimating to it, I quite like the new look. To be honest, I am more concerned with content than packaging, and long as Jenya is here...
