The first thing that i can say is your header "Pickard Design" seems a little rough at the edges also the bore of the letter "a" looks obstructed and this gives a kind of odd feeling ..And "quality designs at affordable prices" slogan needs a touch that would create a contrast with its background maybe a proper stroke at photoshop would do this . Actually i'd fit up the slogan in one row, so the slogan would be much powerful and impulsive..I like light backgrounds and simple yet effective sites so general look seems ok but i think your button colors may be replaced with a suitable red variant..
In my opinion true color schemes can make a site close to "splendid" and affective at the first look even it has very little to offer as content ... while surfing what most of the people -including me- do is clicking a site then have a "first look" at the main page and decide whether to give up or continue clicking..Therefore i believe mainpages are the very vital point of the sites and they must be done attentively and colors are surely not everything i guess but i am sure that they are "most of" everything.. So i would suggest you to reconsider your color choices ..
Anyway these are just friendly suggestions..Good luck at your work....By the way this is my longest post ...

I like red so I probably wont change the color.
But I changed the header a little, tell me what you think.

I think it is pretty nice. It looks too corporate for a freelance desing site though. I think you could get away with something funkier while still having the outdoors/nature vibe. Your work is nice also, but having 2 versions of the logos is redundant imo. I'd go with the full color version and make it bigger to really show it off. The layout and everything else seems pretty well though out and works pretty well. Nice work.

Just a suggestion: I would check for some other image for the top, it can be a skyline but there is something missing on this one, it looks like it's not complete and that small amount of leaves cutted in the right bottom of the image make the image not look balanced. Try sxc.hu that is a free royalty images site and search for "panoramic" there you will find impresive images at no cost.
