Hi Dalecavan :) I thought I'd posted my thoughts with this logo already, but it looks like I was wrong. Sorry about that. The idea behind using the larger color space is that you can easily change up the look of the logo for different applications VERY easily by swapping out the color. The two colors It also makes it very cheap & easy to print.
If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.
Thanks for your time & consideration
