Hi, here is my initial entry for your consideration. I tried to capture the laid-back, funloving feeling with typography and soft lines, but kept it clean for a corporate look. Thanks.
Hi, and thanks for your feedback. Here are some additional variations for your review. You seem to like purple, so I've done a purple version and shown that it would work well on a white or black background. I've also done a version in blue, showing that this logo works in one color, and in white on a blue background to show the reverse.

Whatever you choose, it's vital that you ensure the logo will work in one color. A logo that doesn't just isn't a logo, and you'll eventually run into problems if you don't make sure of this up front. That's the best advice I can offer.
