Thanks for that feedback.

I would like to remind you, not saying that you forgot, I said towards the end that there is always an exception to every rule. I agree that Google made a good decision to leave lots of white space to direct your attention to the search box. Again, that is an example of an exception to the rule. I used Google as an example because it is the only website I know that has that much white space. By white space, I mean blank area with no objects.

That also proves my thought on why not to use white space, if you want the user to get a good initial thought of your overall website's look. On Google, that is what they want to do, direct your focus to the center of the page, so they use white space.

I want to add something that I forgot to mention. Using themes, best to use an external style sheet, will cause the person to not change their feeling from the initial appearance every time they switch pages. That is an actual explaination of why it makes a website look better when using a common theme on every page.
