Blur it up a bit so that some of those lines aren't so perfect (Maybe a light ripple...REALLY light) and make a dark colored background to go under it instead of the tan, and you might have some decent n00b work under your sleeve. You are doing fine, trust me.
-edit- Oh yeah, and get rid of the bottom...you know, the light part? Just make it a triangle with the abstract junk. The bottom is unfixable...ditch it.
