This site is on a list of Bookmarks for standards testing on one of Joe Clark’s sites (look for “Backgrounds”). I can’t figure out if it’s supposed to be a good or bad example, so that makes me kind of nervous.

Good. It’s all good.
I’m honored!
I think you have an interesting mix of opaque and transparent text blocks over your capsicum backgrounds. WCAG 2.0 zealots would ban your transparent text blocks.
I don’t know about all that, but I really love the bright, clean design!
