    SUGGESTIONS:

    I created this as an idea to show the concept of Creating Hours: http://www.raisingsmallsouls.com/images/logosketch.jpg I like it, yet I am open to other ideas.

    That was quick!

    I really want the "pizza slice" to show MORE than the regular 12 hours, somehow...

    I have gone with your original pizza slice idea and added the creating hours wording inbetween to show that its pushing the extra time created. Also, highlighted the created time by making it yellow. All the colours are pastel to make it easy on the eyes yet to give a warm feel. Feedback would be appreciated.

    Hi there,

    Here's my logo entry for this company. I have divided the main area up into 12 segments and added an additional three as suggested.

    Please note colours can easily be changed to suit.

    I will be interested to know your thoughts.

    Many thanks,

    Vicki

    Thought I would do another one. The timeline and hands can be moved about to suit.

    Another variation - bolder colours to ensure the design 'pops out' and a more simplistic look.

    Here's a concept idea
    I noticed most were presenting concepts based off your idea (Great idea by the way), However I decided to step outside the box & present something a little different.

    scorpionagency, what is the middle of the clock supposed to represent?

    Thus far, I like Mitcharr's, CHSagid's, VictoriaAnn's last one, & Masjackey's best.

    You are all quite talented!

    Thanks for asking,

    I went for more of a Time clock concept rather than the common office wall clock.... The center is a stack of digital time cards with the arrow supply both action & direction focusing on the 24th hour. The dots for the clock were to help symbolize a time clocks face.

    I may have put way too much thought into it & got a little too abstract. I can see by your reaction that It was a little counter productive of me.

    OK, thanks- I appreciate your thought, but did not get it!

    I'm actually going to use this logo for 2 sites- time management for parents & time management for work-at-home professionals.

    Mine are kind of abstract I guess but basically you have an hour glass on it's side "saving you time" but it doubles as a butterfly which is part of the "creation" of hours.
    Then you've got a clock being grown "creating hours" but also represents the outdoors which is where a lot of us would like to be if we had better time management.

    Maybe I got a little too into the concept... hehe. Was fun though.
