Looks good. Like the header. I am assuming for sake of a mockup that the 'Subscribe Here' box is white you just wanted to see how it looks. If it would follow the same colour scheme as the rest of the page I would think it would look better.
This is a good rough start but there are a few things that need some work:
Newsletter subscriptions looks like it has been un-styled it introduces blue not used any where else on the site maybe the orange from the tabs would work a little better over there or the green from the top corner. Can you get an images in those posts i feel the left column is just a little bare but coming along well
Thank you, I will look at that again. I never thought of that.
