Addiction RemissionLogo Design Contest

Thank you in advance; I have been nothing but impressed by my experiences here, and hope you can help me again. I want my forum to be THE place for information about opiate dependence and treatment using buprenorphine; I am getting rid of the word 'subox' and 'suboxone' in the title, now that the generic medication-- buprenorphine-- is available. I may have 'addiction remission' as the general URL, and then use a shorter names like 'buprenorphorum' for the forum, and 'bupe blog' for the blog... so if there is a way to have, say, an image of 'addiction remission' being a central concept with other components-- the blog and forum, and maybe a methadone section, a science section, etc.... you get the idea. It may be best to just focus on the addiction remission name for now-- but if you have ideas that would tie the sites together, that would be very helpful.

Thanks to both entries so far.

The site will consist of the home page of 'addiction remission' and will have other sites... the other sites will have names like 'BupeBlog' and 'Buprenorforum'. Do you think those could be worked into the design of the logo, for example listed as components of the addiction remission log... or would that be too busy with all of those words?

Thank you, Vidi.

Ph-- not sure what to make of the multiple dots-- is there something behind them that I am not thinking of?

As for the heart... makes me think about what motivates me. I deal with lots of death-- autopsy photos, grieving families, etc. could the logo use color to to blend from gray and death to read and life....just a thought...

FOR ALL: I am thinking about putting the logo against a solid cover, in the center of a page, and then having spokes coming out to the various parts of the site-- sort of like a site map. So think about a logo that would go onto, say, blood-red, or a reddish-burgundy color-- but still stand out. maybe the logo would have to have a white background and then sit on the red background... but it would be cool if you could put some color as the background for the logo, and still have the log stand out on top of it. I like the 'seriousness' of a dard red, but maybe that would be to hard to contrast the logo against-- unless there was a way to use black or while shadow effects to make the lettering stand out.

dear SuboxDoc...
could you click on our names to provide feedback on individual designs? thank you for this.

I like the blood red background, and the logo I have listed 'first'-- a way for that type of logo to stand out against the red color?
I like that logo because it seems to inspire one to look into the future at the new treatment approaches coming on the scene-- the red makes the topic deadly serious, but the logo has an 'open' feel to it that makes it appear more hopeful.

To all designers: I am far from settled on a design; please give me something to work with!
