It really wouldn't fit with the color scheme.
Depending on what shade of red we use it would barely contrast nor blend well with the monotone blues that we have a lot of.

The blues, blacks and whites we use really blend well. To add an additional color which most certainly could only contrast these colors; might look a little strange if you ask me.

Some shades of red look well; we use it as strong-color, see the download page for example. All text in red or all headings in red will be way too much though. You can try it with a custom stylesheet if you know how. ;)

I see it as a "note" on the downloads page, but no where else.
Btw, as an extra observation trying to navigate through the main pages is somewhat like a maze at the moment. It's really confusing.

I'm talking about that note; it does fit in well, but only because it's used infrequently. Same goes for the link color. It looks good, but if all text would be blue it would be horrible. :p

Any suggestions for a better page structure? We're aware that it's not very clear, we tried to improve it a little but would certainly like to improve it more. :)

I think we already succeeded in improving it over our "old" layout :P But yeah, it could probably be better in small aspects.
