Hello there.
To be honest your sites main page does not seem to have appropriate design principles. I feel there is no "boos of your page", in other words, there is no one element visible as a starting point.
The colors make it look muddy. I think you could use the same colors in a more effective way. Everything has a texture, including the text, so it all jumbles and clashes, in my opinion.
I like how you did your "images" section and you have some cool images in there. I would suggest staying with that layout concept throughout your entire website so each section feels more connected.
Hope you find my comments helpful.

What could be this starting point? Should I the logo make more vivacoius and bigger, and the main menu smaller?

Not enough contrast on main page... Do You think that the Wallpapers and the Covers section are muddy too?

I think that black and white are good for showing my Images gallery as separate, but not for entire website. I very like greens and browns and I'd like to keep these colors as mains.

I suggest searching the internet to look at how others have effectively designed their sites. No to copy them, but to get an idea of what works and what doesn't. I have found that to be the best way to go about it. Also, find a design principles book or two that you like and read them over and over again until the principles become second nature.
That is my best advice. I think you'll find that after a short while your designs will get dramatically better.
Good Luck! Keep me posted on yoru new learnings and work.

Thanks for Your advice, but I probably will not read book for fear of patterns

I do not suggest copying the actual design examples in the books, but rather use them to understand the basic principles of graphic design. For example, the concept of contrast, proximity, alignment etc... These are fundamental principles that are used (or properly broken) in every successful design. Using the principles you can create infinite successful designs. Without following the principles your designs will suffer professionalism. Here is a great book I suggest you try. I promise your unique designs will improve dramatically if you follow the principles. here is a link http://www.amazon.co...2585530?ie=UTF8
Good luck!

i think the colour-schyme needs to be changed firstly. try: www.colorlovers.com
Also i think the site needs some structure. i.e use coloured panels for menu, and maybe use white as a panel for information
