I need some ideas!

Hello guys/gals.
So I've been doing a web-site for a client through my college course, and the site is nearing completion.
All that remains is to fix the xhtml validation rules that are borked (ugh), and add some final content.
But, the site is looking fairly flat as it is (I'm sure you'll agree), and I need some ideas/suggestions/tips to help make it "pop" a little so to speak. I'm thinking of playing with some subtle textures, and colour variation to replace the drab grey background colour, and also the grey content-box colour, but I'm really not sure what to do.
For the home page for example, I was thinking of having some nice graphic integrated into the top of the content box that represents the client's company, but I really am stuck for ideas!
Please, if you have any ideas, let me know (I know you have ideas, this is the AC for fuck's sake, don't hold out on me! :P)
Anyway, I'm sorry if you don't like the logo - and possibly it's colours - but the client wants his logo more or less "as is" and un-touched, so you'll have to work around that if you have any suggestions at all.

Also if you find any bugs/typos etc let me know. Just bear in mind most of the site is more or less set to go, the client is happy with it, so any major design suggestions will be considered, but I may not have the time/patience to follow them through - only a week left before deadline.
Thanks dudes.
EDIT: I r teh dumhead lolz! Forgot the URL -_-

See what other ppl are doing, maybe that will help! Also, you need some picture in that page. I suggest Istock, it's not as good Corbis or Getty images, but you can get pictures for a dollar. A DOLLAR!
