Not sure what less cartoony means, I was going for a bold Mountain graphic.
I think the orange lines (sun-rays) in orange at the top, along with the funky typography
give them that cartoon look. Also the purple colors/orange colors are very playful, I'll try
more serious typography/colors, that will make it look sleek!!
Number #3 was nice because I incorporated an open-book at the bottom, which is a
subtle/subliminal indication of knowledge and it helps point to the name below.
