This is a fair improvement to you last design, however to be honest you are a long way away...
There a re a few things that you need to understand and research before you put up a website, and I think as I have offered my opinion on all of your designs that I should let you know:
- Who is your target Audience? Who are you tring to attract?
- What is the goal of your site?
- What do you want to achieve?
Right after you have all those answers, you need to research your competition, what are they doing differently?
Once you understand that, you need to create a logo, and look at making it a little more complex than now. Once this has been designed and you are happy with it, then you can choose the colours for your site.
Generally websites, have more than one colour, at the moment you have blue, and a hue of royal blue. The pale blue is not bad, but there is way too much of it.
Fonts - these are really important, as most people can tell what your site is about without reading anything just by looking at the font.
Navigation, think about this from the end user's point of view, you need a main navigation, and internal and a footer nav... These help in SEO, and well as the general public / visitors happiness, and ease of use.
You have a fair bit of work to do, but I believe that you will get there, might I suggest, that you ask some of the better designers on this place to help you out in a visual context.
Good luck

Shadus, I get that you like the tools in Flash, but they are basically the same in Fireworks... or even try Illustrator, but designing in Flash... not one of the better choices... I only use flash to make UI, not
