Nexus ScientificLogo Design Contest

Wow. I'm already REALLY impressed with the submissions, so far. If your submission receives a "Not Interested" stamp that doesn't mean I wasn't impressed with your creative skills but only that it did not fit with my style for the company.
Tips: Colors should be really bold. Red should be really red (not orange); Blue should be bold (not baby blue) and I would also consider green (as in bold green) but only for the word "Nexus" or any logo ideas. I'm trying to avoid light colors that would be lost on a white business card, letter head, or website.
The company: We specialize in analytical equipment services. One method uses red or green lasers to analyze materials for quality control or identify unknowns in samples collected by forensics. Another system uses x-rays to separate electrons from the elemental shell which creates a fluorescence wave or diffracted wave measured by high tech detectors.

Greetings --

Thanks for the brief summary of your interests and what your company does. It will help us designers tremendously.

Do you also want abstract mark? Because brief says "wordmark" only.

Thank you Paull. I would also consider an abstract mark but I would like to make sure the company name is identifiable.
I appreciate your continued interest.

Who says it needs to be atoms? that was my idea, creativity and originality is the key of success
