Hi,
The middle section is fine, looks clean and smart. May be make the logo a bit bigger?
I would personally change the the front of the text to something else, looks a little dated.
Have you tried taking the dark blue of the middle section all the away to the top and bottom? Or Have the light blue just for the logo?
One last thing, for me when I see FREE in the colour red I automatically think of a pop up.
Hope that helps
Let me know how you get on
