I like the style. The only things that bug me are:

-Header doesn't fit in that well, I would rather see a fluid header, or one the same size as the site. Having it centered as it is now would work, if you could blend the sides into the blue bg more (maybe have the dark blue repeat, and the actual image blend into the blue). edit: I just realized your image is larger than I thought - the sides are a close color to your bg, but not the same!

-Statusicon images are yucky lol... excuse my wording. They don't really match the look of the site much, but to make matters worse you can see white jaggies around them.

Good luck with the new site; it looks good.

It's a good start but it needs improvement.

The stats block should have it's own page ... there's no need to have it on the front page.

The custom buttons throughout the site are poor. They are pixelated and hard to read.

The page looks really bad at 800 resolution; even at 1024 it doesn't look that good. Remove all the space found on the left/right of main table and it will look better.

i used the same colour code so i have no idea why its come out looking like that but i'll have a play around... and the status icons i agree are not that great but they take AAAGES thats why i did one, and just edited that. and the whites around the edges i cant get rid of whatsoever! i tried all kinds of things, it just wasnt working (in photoshop cs2) any ideas on easy ways to fix?

Get rid of that stats block, or at least move it somewhere else. I see so many sites putting it there and it's such a waste of space. I second the header image being a bit small, and those statusicons are "yucky" indeed.

Good start though - nice color scheme and it's cleanly done, just needs some TLC.
