Surely the construction style is "clean, simple and elegant". You
shows a good choice of colours, and the pics merge very well in
the graphic context. What I fell slightly wrong is the animation
*speed* : wouldn't it be better a little slower ?
In my opinion, there are just TOO many sites that rely on
speed of animation and chaotic-multiple-elements-bouncing on
screen : sometimes less speed means also possibility of
understand better the messages.
This, maybe, can be applied at your site : it is a site that
may suggest a sense of elegance, style, and cool design.

I don't see anything too pretentious nor feminine.

My humble advices :

1)slow down intro
2)increase a bit the size of fonts
3)fix the pics-navigator bug and slow down it

Very nice work, aside this minor poin
cents.
