Some other things to consider is that your body content (Images and Text.), need not stretch across the whole page. Infact likely they should not. You want your body text to be visible when the page loads, at the moment you have a rather large image dominating the bottem of the page when it first loads. A better idea would be to make that image smaller and put the small blurb beside it. My personal preferance is to keep images to the right and text to the left unless the image it's self is the focus of the text. If your theme provides column shortcodes you may even consider using them to divide the body in three and have the blurb, list and image side by side. Whatever looks best to you and is most comfortable to read. An added benefit of placing the text beside the image at the top of the page is that it shortens the line length, puts your text across more lines and makes it look more substantial. I would say that a good rule of thumb is that your body text to be clearly visible on a 15 inch laptop (As this seems to be the most common screen size purchased.), though need not fit entirely on the screen. You never want to visitor to have to scroll down to view the body text of your page.
I would still suggest that you keep in mind the size and proportion of images you want to display on your website. Cropping for size, proportion and content will make your pages look more organzided than having images of random sizes and proportions. You never want to add images directly from your digital camera, you want to at the very minimum check the resolution (ppi) of the images you are putting on your website and make sure they are 72 ppi. I just want to enphisize this as it's actually very important.
As for the links, you may also want to consider working them into related pages on your site, perhaps as a footnote on the page rather than simply having a miscellanious page for them. I like to have these outbound links open in a new tab or browser window when ever possible. That allows visitors to access content on these external pages without actually leaving your website and can return simply by closing the window or tab. If you really want a seperate page for external links, you can do that.
