The bottom 2/3rds of the site is a bit too much blue IMO. Especially on the bottom where the BG color is nearly the same as the button color. It makes it hard to distinguish where one ends and the other begins which makes it difficult to read. The Dark blue in the middle does the same thing, instead of making the boxes in the middle pop out to catch the user's attention it has a more dulling effect, a lighter color would help with that.
I know what you mean regards to the background. The only issue is I don't want to add another color to the scheme. That's why I stuck with this one. But I'll definitely play around with it a little more and try to find a better suited lighter color.

Something seems off. Either it's the text or it's the lack of any BG contrast with the content. But something is off.
I'm not really sure what is missing, but I also feel like something is missing. Perhaps I should try making an internal page design as well. But the objective of the design is to keep it simple.

This is the most polished of the 3 designs. Everything looks good other than the oversized login box and contact form. Maybe making them a bit smaller would fit better IMO.
Oddly, I actually really like that large login box. Something about it adds more to the design. I tried with simple, user links but that didn't feel right with the design as much as this does.
