Is there an image? If so, then chances are that this was the case of massive over-exposure. However, I would go back and test the camera for a light leak, as this is more probable. Please film in the camera and set it outside for an hour. If you get anything after developing the film then you've got a light leak. One problem that I ran across was fogging due to the sun coming directly in through the pinhole. My exposure time on Sunday was about 15 minutes, and this gave the sun an opportunity at one point to move into a position where is came directly into the hole. This only happened on one shot and the result was more fog than an actual turning of the negative to black, but it's worth a consideration.
