Jewish TucsonLogo Design Contest

I'm open to both flat logos (iOS7-style) and ones with more depth. Blue, gold, white are all good colors - and please remember to try incorporate elements of Tucson (such as a cactus) in the logo too.

We have made a decision to place the logo against a black background (#000000). Please keep this in mind when submitting logos. I've updated the website to show the new header background color.

We've been looking through the submissions - it's a great start, but we feel that they are missing something. So, we would like to provide a little more information:

1. We are looking for something more colorful. Yes, it will be placed against a black background, but we don't want to limit the color to the (#33bdea) only. Yes, it must be a good color compliment of this blue, but here's a link that shows many complimentary colors that we can explore:

We like the idea of introducing something purple. Take a look at the following website template to get a sense of the bright contrasts and colorful design:

Now, as far as the design itself goes, the two common Tucson icons are the cactus and a mountain. So, here are a few ideas to explore

1. Using a mountain at sunset - with a purple / blue / gold glow, thereby complimenting the text
2. Combining a mountain and cactus together. #27 has already done this - but maybe we could make more use of color (blue, purple, yellow, green)
3. We often see bright yellow wild flowers with the green cactus. This could look good in a logo too

Thanks very much,
Steve
