As a pointer to expand your market, my suggestion is that though your logo is explosive and fun and undoubtedly meaningful within your organization, it runs the risk of turning away customers that may find it too crude. Just a suggestion as you move your company forward in tough economic times that demand an expansion of your target market. Best wishes!
Sorry, I didnt have the vector image for a better shield. I really like the competition you have and some of the changes to your top 5. Just wondering if it was something I said that made you consider the changes? Good luck with the choice making!
