One little note, first: I believe website reviews such as this one are all about finding bugs and mistakes and such, about suggesting solutions and last but not least, the overall reception of the site in question. Let me remind you that the final choices are the author's alone.

That was all about questions like "Should I change the color?", "Should I try to reduce the number?". You're a web-designer, right? Figure it out! Need I spell it out for you?

If you MUST know my PERSONAL opinion, I think you should keep the color scheme but STICK TO IT, make the site fixed width and edit the pics on the index (make them blue).
