An absorbent article having a centroid , a longitudinal centerline (L), a transverse centerline (T) orthogonal to said longitudinal centerline (L) and intersecting said longitudinal centerline at said centroid, and a body facing surface , said absorbent article comprising: a background region ; a central colored region coincident with said centroid; an intermediate colored region radially circumscribing more than 90% of said central colored region, wherein a portion of said intermediate colored region extends across said longitudinal centerline, wherein along said transverse centerline part of said background region is between said intermediate colored region and said central colored region; and an outer colored region , wherein at least part of said background region is between said outer colored region and said intermediate colored region; wherein said background region, said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region are viewable from said body facing surface; wherein said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region differ in color from said background region; wherein said central colored region and said intermediate colored region are spaced apart from one another; wherein said absorbent article comprises a first layer and a second layer , wherein said first layer comprises a colored region selected from the group consisting of said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region, wherein said second layer comprises a colored region selected from the group consisting of said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region, wherein said colored region of said first layer differs from said colored region of said second layer. a background region ; a central colored region coincident with said centroid; an intermediate colored region radially circumscribing more than 90% of said central colored region, wherein a portion of said intermediate colored region extends across said longitudinal centerline, wherein along said transverse centerline part of said background region is between said intermediate colored region and said central colored region; and an outer colored region , wherein at least part of said background region is between said outer colored region and said intermediate colored region; wherein said background region, said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region are viewable from said body facing surface; wherein said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region differ in color from said background region; wherein said central colored region and said intermediate colored region are spaced apart from one another; wherein said absorbent article comprises a first layer and a second layer , wherein said first layer comprises a colored region selected from the group consisting of said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region, wherein said second layer comprises a colored region selected from the group consisting of said central colored region, said intermediate colored region, and said outer colored region, wherein said colored region of said first layer differs from said colored region of said second layer. <EOS>
