You're welcome to read it in the nude if you'd like. Mind the scissors though.

Very nice! Simple, easy design. Easy to navigate. Downloads fast. But pink? Isn't that a bit stereotypical (the very thing Skepchicks want to avoid)? ;)
Minuscule quibbles:
Scale the Unicorn girl down so you won't have to scroll to see the drawing.
The mane and part of the ear of the unicorn is cropped. The bottom of the picture, too.
Link on page 1 to page 2 of "Growing up a Skepchick" points to wrong page.
Large chunks of text (poll.html) are hard to read. (ETA: that are centered!)
Suggestion: Give the area outside the pink border a "broken white" color. Just enough grey (greypink?) to make it distinguishable from the "page" itself. Right now, there's a lot of glaring white.

And I'm on a super-fast mega whizzo extra shine juice connection, too.

Make a non-skepchick skeptic calendar and see how many copies you will sell...
Anyway: Kudos to the skepchicks. I will be emailing my female more or less skeptic friends about it. :)

There is nothing wrong with a heterosexual man respecting the beauty of the male form. Take it off, Scrut!

How dou you pronounce " 'zine?"
Is the " ' " a glottal stop, or one of those clicks that Bushmen make?
I'd hate to be humiliated at a party by saying it wrongly.
And yeah, less pink, more nudity. If that's possible.
