Site Advice

I USED to have the left menu as regular white blocks with normal color links
and black text.

My wife felt the white menus AND the white content area was too much white..

I ended up getting carried away though and now it is WAY opposite.

What should I do for the left navigation menu?

I think it looks ok,

But I would align all title like Current Website Examples to the left and not
centered.

I find the white block for your body copy abit floaty I would have that all
section white and then run a dark blue boarder round the edge of the website
and even round the edge of the body block.

It just needs finishing off.

great idea. I will left-align the left-nav section headers. That text seems
blurry too.

I do not understand what you mean. "I find the white block for your body copy
abit floaty I would have that all section white and then run a dark blue
boarder round the edge of the website and even round the edge of the body
block. "

What should I do? It is white now? Or do you mean the Body element background
color?

I adjusted the line-heights to 130% and added some padding, I think it helps readability a bit. Blues and Whites are harder than I expected.
