I think it's a good idea to have the colors be a bit "drab" (if I may...). I think it makes the art presented on the page stand out that much more. I personally like it. Now, if it was a "news" site or something along those lines, I doubt I would feel the same way, but with an "art" site, I think it's a wise choice for the page itself to NOT distract from the art.
For instance in the sample shots above, there's a thumbnail of some blue-ish blob sphere looking thing (plase no flames if it's not "blue", I'm color blind...). If the colors on the site were yellows, blues, etc., you wouldn't even really notice the thumnail since the page would be distracting your attention too much. In the examples up there, you see that inage almost instantly.
Just my 2 cents.

btw: there will be the color chooser option i mentioned above and don't worry, orange will be there too ;)
how i see, now we have to vote which colour scheme should be the default. what do u think about it? is it possible to make a poll here at kde-look.org?
options could be:
- grayscale
- yellow
- red
- orange
- blue
- green
- other
- i don't care

i made it in b&w shades only, because there was almost a flame war in kde-artists mailing list about the "which colors we like to have in default design each other" ;) so i decided to let user choose his/her favorite color scheme. maybe the whole site could use various themes or be themeable, but this is a secondary case...
now we speak about the default look and feel.
