Digital KaizenLogo Design Contest

I prefer the simple designs with the orange and black contrast. Another font I like is one that I just saw at http://www.humanbusinessworks.com. Also like the simple logo (different colors of course).
Thanks for the designs so far guys!

Just a quick update... there are some nice drafts so far.

However, I am open to other colors, fonts, shapes etc... all the drafts seem to be going in a similar direction and I haven't spotted one that's really convincing me yet.

Just thought I'll throw that in... so everyone knows my current thoughts.

Thanks everyone!

quick update:

Although I don't want any Japanese symbols... the word KAIZEN is a Japanes word and stands for "improvement" or "change for the better"... here the Wikipedia definition:

"Kaizen (改善?), Japanese for "improvement", or "change for the better" refers to philosophy or practices that focus upon continuous improvement of processes in manufacturing, engineering, and business management. It has been applied in healthcare,[1] psychotherapy,[2] life-coaching, government, banking, and other industries. When used in the business sense and applied to the workplace, kaizen refers to activities that continually improve all functions, and involves all employees from the CEO to the assembly line workers. It also applies to processes, such as purchasing and logistics, that cross organizational boundaries into the supply chain.[3] By improving standardized activities and processes, kaizen aims to eliminate waste (see lean manufacturing). Kaizen was first implemented in several Japanese businesses after the Second World War, influenced in part by American business and quality management teachers who visited the country. It has since spread throughout the world[4] and is now being implemented in many other venues besides just business and productivity."

Hope that helps... We'd like the logo to represent new and better ways of doing business for people that are open minded and want a change for the better by doing things differently - quite differently actually!

Thanks everyone for your input!
