My husband's band changed their name, so I had to make them a new website. It has no content, but it's pretty so.
Tell me it's pretty, dammit!

BTW, a flock of blackbirds is called a murder. Duh.

who the hell misspelled 'coming' >:[
it would be pretty if I could read the links~~~~
Perhaps changing the font!The other is fine but the font looks too gothic and emo
Yeah, kind of hard to read. It does look pretty though.
But it would be much prettier if it adhered to web standards. You can ignore this criticism if you want to, though
Actually a flock of crows is called a murder. Blackbirds are a member of the thrush family.
Nice design though!
You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!
The scrollbar sticks out right now. I would set up a style for it so it blends in with the rest of the site more.
That style would only be visible with Internet Explorer though. Seeing that Firefox's market share is steadily increasing it wouldn't do much good.
I'f you're using css you should add the body colours into the css too, it'll look a lot neater and you'll have more control. Same with the fonts. It saves looking for the line of code when you can just quickly access the css if anything needs changing.

Looks cool but the black scrollbar only shows up when I browse the website in IE.

I think the design is very nice.
The main thing I'd recommend is using CSS to tidy up the code, but hey - it's not code I'm going to be developing, so whatever suits you more.
Maybe it would be a good idea to use a <div style="width: 813px; height: 406px; overflow: auto;"> to deal with the scrolling part of the page. Frames lead to unpredictable behaviour of the browser, like back buttons not working and if you wanted to include Javascript, you could easily get into strife.
EDIT: The current code does adhere to web standards. The only thing that is missing is the DOCTYPE declaration at the top of the source, but that in no way affects the rendering of the page.
dammit, I don't trust myself to quote shlup's post without erasing all of her post again, so uh, just going to use quickreply xD

My mistake then. I only did a quick check of the code and saw no doctype. A missing DOCTYPE declaration can affect the rendering of the website though, as browsers will render the website in quirks mode then. Also see here: Activating Browser Modes with Doctype
The div-solution instead of a real frame would get my support, too.
