I like the look so far, Justin. It looks serious and professional; presumably links to sites will add color, and you could use some color to draw attention to important information. As a person who is not particularly computer savvy, I am more likely to start looking for information on a website that does not appear too complicated or intimidating, but a site that looks unprofessional (randomly assembled, too much color for no particular reason, and so forth) won't get more than a quick glance.
