Cool My blog's template

Hi!

I'm looking for some advices about my latest creation.

--> http://egonomia.free.fr/

My goal was to work on a dark background while keeping everything as clean as possible.

The problem is that I'm so used to see this template I don't any longer have the capacity to step back and be objective... I know something is wrong but just can't say what. Colors? Sidebar? Logo? Menu?

To tell you the truth, I found this template to be a little bit too minimalist. Nothing really catchy.

What do you think about it? Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance!

PS : I know, I know, code is not valid... Yet. I'm concentrating on the appearance right now. I'll clean up the code later on.

Nice job overall. I like how it's clean and all. I think what some of the problem may be is the contrast between the black and the brown. I noticed that there was a brown only after looking at the site again. Try brightening the brown a bit.

I really like the type for Egonomia, and appreciate the black and white approach. Im not sure about the gold/brown text on the left though
