I would like to select a winner within 24 to 48 hours and will pay via PayPal. I have attached a file of a few elements that I am looking to incorporate in a logo. I did not include the company name to avoid having it come up in search results (will give to the winner to finalize), but the number of letters are basically the same on the design and I would like the lightening incorporated in-between the name. Plus, preferred letters are Ariel Black or another modern block. I would like the cactus and the sun all in a circle. Please don't use clipart (like I did for the example) and make the 3 different elements look like they all belong together, but other than the lightning being in-between the letters (or can be next to the name), they can go anywhere. Finally, if you cannot incorporate both the sun and the cactus, just do one of them, but the lightning has to stay.
Wend666 is definitely heading in the right direction, that is cool. I like yours John and think it is just missing something, but can't figure it out. Spy, that is pretty neat, but no circle.
Wendi, you have used a clipart. Great "creativity". http://www.freepik.com/free-vector/cactus-in-desert-sunrise_521071.htm
Just to add, I really like John's concept. I will look for more designs over the next 24 hours, but I do want to close it tomorrow. Plus, if I get a couple of great designs, it is possible that I will select more than two. I have done that in the past.
Thanks for all of the entries. I am picking Johnross as the winner. John, I will send you a couple more details, including the name to use. Logos4all - I like yours as well. I am thinking about what changes might make sense for yours and might want to purchase that one as well. Thanks everybody. I will likely have more requests soon!
