I'm not sure about how correct these rules are, but have you considered using something like fwbuilder or shorewall to generate the rules for you? And you may want to allow some ICMP stuff through. Depends how visible you want to be on the net! Oh, and if you are allowing ssh, then consider running fail2ban or denyhosts to stop dictionary attacks via ssh, which are very common.
