Contest Private Contest - Improve Existing Logo $15

Hello designers! I need your help once again.

This time I want your help in improving an existing logo for a community that helps people live happier and healthier. Here it is:



The problem:
I really like the logo. However, the problem is that it's way off balance. As you can see, there are 3 parts to it, the butterfly, the main text and then the ".org" at the end. All of this makes it very off balance and hard to use on anything. The G for example drags the entire logo down, while parts of the butterfly extend it up and to the left. Also there are two different fonts going on which further makes it off balance.

What to keep:
So I'd like to keep the color, the idea of a butterfly made from leaves, and the general pleasant look, but I'd like to make it more symmetrical and balanced. So it can be easily used in small spaces such as web headers or easily centered on T-shirts.

Include 1 version with .org and one without. Both should look good.

$15 to the winner. Contest closes in 72 hours. Thanks for participating!

In the meantime here's the feedback:

@tosario (PM entry)

I like the entry without the .org, but the "i" without the dot looks strange and the .org version doesn't look good.

@getdomain4u I like the overall look and feel of this. I love the butterfly, however, once you down size it, some details of the butterfly get lost. Maybe try to make those tiny parts a bit thicker? Not sure about the .org version. The ".org" looks a bit out of place, since the Organics is way more italicized here.

@web_72 I like it but the text feels too plain. Couldn't see this being used as a brand. It is way more balanced than our current logo, however.

@3SS sorry, I am not liking either one of these.

@Athisa I'm not liking this, it doesn't look like you read my requirements. It's not using our butterfly concept, and it's actually even more off balance than our current logo.

@logos4all Interesting. I do like this, but I'm not sure how I feel about the text. Feels a bit rough and not a big fan of the G and the CS connection. I would try other fonts.

 

Thanks for the feedback, Some font variations.

 

Thank you for your feedback. Please check the revision.
