    Nice header graphic.

    But I think you should make the main page
    background color white, instead of using grey.
    It's more comfortable to our eyes.

    I'd stick with the colors, it looks pretty good! However, think about some padding/spacing around Images within posts.

    Nice, but I would put a space between the main content box and the sidebar box

    I like the header design but I'm not a huge fan of the font... try using a smaller font (maybe impact) with a nice shiny effect on it.
