$25 logo contest for 3J.com (Mobile phone site)

[staffjam]

I’m looking to have a logo designed for the following Name:
3J.com
With the following slogan:
Mobile Technology advice

Prize: $25 paid to the winner (Via Paypal)

Contest end Date: Wednesday at 20:00 GMT.

I'd like the design to look classy and professional, but it must also be funky and fresh. So i'm pretty open at this point as i've got no set ideas in mind.
But I do want to be able to read the domain name very easily (letters must be clear.) - so 3J.com
I realise it’s a bit vague, but once I’ve seen a few designs I’ll have a better feel for what I’m after.
I’m not sure about emblems but it would be nice to see some logos with these built in as well.
I have a site Namecake.com and I like what the designer did with the emblem there – this is just an example and I’m not looking to have it copied, but I think the design is professional and pretty good.
Banks.Net has a nice looking logo - if it was jazzed up and made more funky that sort of thing could be great.

The site will be an information resource centre with articles and information on Mobile phones, Broadband, Phone Tariffs & Rates and Gadgets.

Thanks, I look forward to seeing your designs. I will give regular feedback.

Thanks for your entries.
Okay here is some feedback:

Creations4You – Interesting design, just not what I’m looking for. It needs to be clearer and have the .com. Okay your second design is quite nice, but it’s still missing something.

Anidesign – I like the colours, but it’s missing the .com. I also feel it needs to be jazzed up a bit and made to look a bit more corporate.

Mutanzgaming – sorry but it’s not what I’m looking for.

Graphicband – interesting idea, but it’s missing the .com and it’s missing something.

Maldita – I quite like the designs – I’d like to see them with the caption.

Msi52 – sorry it’s not what I’m looking for.

Dimitri123 – this is the best so far, but again it’ missing the .com and I’d like iot to either be jazzed up a bit or made to look more corporate.

Thanks for all your entries and please keep them coming, 48 hours to go.

I’m running 5 competitions at present, please see below for details of them all:
