The background is too dark, and obviously copied from something else.

The avatar has "flash glare" from the flash- very distracting.

If you have soft lights, turn them on, then turn the flash OFF- and put the camera on a tripod and crank up the Fstop to your lens sweet spot (usually 5.6)- and iso at sweet spot of 400(?) then adjust the shutter speed for exposure.

Otherwise, it's a nice concept.

(or use a bounced flash like this)

Here's one with the flash on(for comparison)

Then with NO flash(or bounced, can't remember) and better settings ON a tripod:

A tripod, tripod, tripod is so important in still shots like this. Hope this helped? Give it another try!!
