Whoah thar! That is one eye killer of a myspace! Go for a simple, stationary background. Makes life easier for everyone.
But...um... about the music....is the extreme lo fi ness intentional? You've got a lot of drums that sound like 505's, synths that sound like they're straight from the general MIDI, or at least a terrible Casio, and some terrible mastering that made me feel like my ears were exploding. My suggestion is to get yourself some VSTi's (software synthesizers that you can plug into FL), because you're clearly using Fruity presets, and that just can't work. Do a little search for "Karma FX" and "Superwave P8", because both are freeware VSTi's that get some great sounds that allow you to just get a MIDI and a preset and enjoy. Some other proprietary VSTi's that come in handy are z3ta+ and ReFX Vanguard (both get great trance + hardcore sounds). As far as the drums go, sample, sample, sample! Find any samplepacks of classic drum synths like the Roland TR 808 or the Roland TR 909, and use samples of those instead of the terrible fruity presets (I've got quite a few samples over here, so just PM me if you'd like them.) As far as mastering goes, don't sweat it for now. Just try to keep everything's volume so that one element doesn't blast out people's ears or overpower other parts of the song.
Sorry if I was a little harsh there, but I'm 14 too, and I know how easy it is to have all the people you know tell you a song is great because they can't tell the difference between good and bad electronic music.
And by the way, a great place to go to get production help (that I wish I had when I was starting out) is at www.dogsonacid.com, at the forum called "The Grid". Just lurk there and soak up all the advice handed out (but don't post your music until you're extremely, extremely confident with it, because DOA has some absolute geniuses and some absolute bastards on it, which is by no means a recipie for constructive criticism.)
