$25 Logo Design Contest

    Hi,

    I am looking for a logo design for a new product I am working on.

    The logo should read:

    Stock Trading Course.co.uk

    With the .co.uk bit much smaller than the rest of the text.

    I am pretty open to ideas on this so I don't want to give too many guidelines that restrict creativity.

    Also I am not sure exactly how I want it to look, I am torn between it being modern and funky with dark text and a neon outline.....or the complete opposite and being very elegant and traditional.

    So, please think about the target market for a stock trading product and see what you can come up with. Also as the product will be targeting the UK you can use British themed designs, however this is not a requirement.

    The winner will be required to send me a flat jpg and a PSD of the design.

    Prize will be $25 payable by PayPal. The winner will also get the option of doing more design work on the site including a header graphic.

    Competition will close on Monday, get your entries in early for feedback though as I wont be around much over the weekend ;)

    Thanks for the quick entries so far :)

    Radyb - I like yours, especially the first one. I would like to see a version on a white background though, perhaps with the text black with a coloured outline?

    Foogle - Thanks but not keen, they look a bit clip art like and not professional enough for what I want

    Ideosmil - Really great design, I like it a lot. I would quite like to see some variations using different colours though on both a white and a black background with different coloured text?

    Cloud69 - Similar to the feedback I gave foogle, it just doesnt look prefssional enough for what I want. However, I do like what you did with the dollar sign and letter S - but as its a UK site it doesnt really fit.

    Keep the entries coming :)

    Ideosmil and Radyb - Thanks for the revisions, no more changes at the moment

    Seven Design - They are all ok but none of them are really grabbing my eye as exciting I'm afraid

    Delusion Web - I really like this one, however at the moment the graphic grabs far more attention that the text. Could you tweak it so that the text stands out more and the graphic above it less? I think the colours are fine though.

    Gipanuhotko - Thanks, that is better than the first one, still not sure it has quite enough about it as some of the others but its still pretty good.

    BS_webdeciphers - Not bad, but again lacking that bit of excitement I feel

    aTo - Sorry but not keen on them, they are lacking the professionalism I need.

    Tushki - I quite like the graphic part of your design but the text I am not keen on, doesnt have the professional look about it
