too many capitals, not enough contrast between different colors used.

I think you're looking for a pastel colour? Try using Photoshop's colour selectors, they've got some good ones. Font-wise, the "navigation" text doesn't go. And if you're going to make the header that big, then please make the content area larger as well.

"accent colour"?
what about something like dark orange? terra-cota? "dirty" orange? E37500ish?
(wont look too good on top of the bg image though)

apart from that... I dont think there is enough to talk about... atm...

yeah when i went to school, the accent color was the color used apart from the typical colors, ie you got all pale type colors, the accent may be a bright(er) color to stand out from the rest.

& i'll try oranges and see where i get with that.

Thanks dorian
