Serif font for headers and sans-serif for body looks wrong - usually it's the other way around. OTOH many people prefer sans-serif for digital media and serif for paper media. For example Wikipedia is sans-serif only.

I'm not a designer either, but I don't think there was anything wrong with the choice of fonts. I'm on a HTPC and I've found the body to be quite readable. The header's font seems kind of Comic Sans-y, but I for one have absolutely no problem with it. My beef is with the space between paragraphs, which I think is too short. And I'd probably move the separating lines to before the subheaders rather than below them.

thanks for the suggestions Zecc. I've updated the site to include more spacing. Hope this looks better.

Looks good to me.
