Yeah, sorry-- like I said, I don't know much about your team's style outside of that website.
Like David said-- the colors are sort of secondary overall to just having a modern interface for your site-- there's a hugely distracting gap between the cool pixel-art style graphics you have and the flat colors elsewhere on the site, not to mention the modern video player (I do love that you're using Vimeo), which really clashes stylistically with the rest of the page. \
There's also that "floating in space" feel of all the graphical elements on the page-- when I highlight I can see that the images on the bottom as a whole line up, but they don't appear to when you're just looking at the page.
As I mentioned before, if you haven't already, looking at other websites that have won awards can be a very, very useful tool to use.
Here's a thread that has a list of winners . In particular, you may want to take a look at the following teams' websites:
Team 987 The High Rollers
Team 1114 Simbotics
Team 1429 Team KAOS
Team 1816 The Green Machine
You layout isn't entirely off, but the page as a whole feel a little bit, I'm not sure the best to phrase it, but it looks like the '90s. A website is one of the many public faces a team presents, so finding the balance between a professional look at personal flair is a difficult balancing act-- my team knows that from experience, transferring from a
rather unique design that was made completely unmanageable by the fact that the guy that coded it graduated without a clear replacement, to what we
have now, which is still very, very much under work, and will be going through a long series of adjustments and alterations to be an appropriate face for our team.
Best of luck in all your endeavors.
