It actually looks pretty good but I think there is a lot of unnecessary spacing between the logo, social network buttons, menu bar and the tutorials. It pushes your content way down forcing viewers to scroll even to see the first row of content.
The website is designed quite well but it consumes too much space in putting the logo and tutorials. You should use is such a way that it looks eye catching and doesn't include this much big thumbnails.
I really don't like the pop up right when you go to the page about cookies. You don't need that at all...
I'm not too keen on it either. I'm working on a more graceful solution, as that one is just a plugin.
You can move your site out of EU and take away that cookie thing. The design's pretty nice. Go for building high PR links. At least couple really good once at this point and concentrate on content. it could be of better quality.
