open the colour-chart thing inPS (can't remember what it's called but not the picker) and find a good shade, then you have a light background, a table filer, a text and table-border colour all derived from the same shade - choose a nice one and it will all fit together nicely.
Stick to one font, and sans-serif is always better in my opinion (definitly for titles anyway).
shading always looks a bit cheap in my opinion - i prefer solid colour personally (or those one-pixel one colour, next another look nice sometimes)
i think one of the problems in your current site is the parts see kind of seperate, not really smooth - they don't fit together. try to get it all looking as one, smooth transitions between menu and content (not shading, i mean so it looks like one thing)
