    Nice design!

    kinda has a feel reminescent of the old A&W rootbber signs?!
    Dont call me goofy, that was my 1st thought and it's 1am.

    I was thinking the same thing...it looks like orange and brown at first glance. Still an ok logo, though. Makes me kinda thirsty. :)

    I like too.

    I'd like a highly reflective sticker of that for my helmet. That way the cagers will know what they are trying to crush.

    I'd like to thank all for submitting their logo ideas!

    Thanks for the compliments. My wife designed and created it :D. I was going to go with yellow instead of orange. WOW, I had no idea on the A&W logo 8O :p. I love those frosty mugs! How about we vote, orange vs yellow?

    yellow/black doesn't work on the background on the message board. I looked at it on white background and was much better.

    Still voted for orange/black. Looks especially good on the blue in the banner.

    EDIT:

    Any way the missus could work a ".com" in there?

    Keep in mind that the yellow & orange will change, depending on the site and item color. So, we are just voting for the color on current blue theme...

    Yes, .com could be worked in there. But this way, it's short and tidy. With '.com' it gets lengthy. Most logos usually don't have the .com extension, but others do...

    The problem with orange and black is.......they're Harley colors.

    The A&W root beer came to mind, but so did (baseball team,) Baltimore Oriles. I like the .comm add if on a sticker.

    I went with yellow and black, I think it stands out just a bit more.

    For side-by-side comparison, I uploaded the .com logo above. What do you guys think?

    Throws off the balance. Lesson #1 - don't take creative ideas from MiCarl.

    I think the .com clutters it up.

    I agree, leave the .com out of it.

    Question I have though with reference to the color, Yamaha didn't make any yellow or orange XJ's did they? Why not use one of the bikes original colors? Red comes to mind!

    I like it better without the .com. Your right it does clutter it up. And I'm for Orange and Brown
