Swampsource time.
I am making a website for my business. What do you think of these possible logos?

I prefer the circle to the oval.

Don't like the light source effect at all. I'd rather see a solid circle with a cooler font. But I'm a nerd.

I'm a circle man. Shall we put it to a poll?

Real power crowdsourcing would be a design contest.

Get a pro. It's money well spent.
There are a number of sites where you can put your logo work out to bid. Should be able to get a professional logo for fairly cheap.

I'm sure Grasspenis could create an interesting logo for you.

I think I like this layout, and shade of purple. It looks good in grey scale too. I have no clue on the font. Every one I try out looks fine.
Can you guys abide just a little bit of gradient?

I think the gradient is ok. The spacing is off though and the circle is a bit pixelated. Seriously man, get a pro to put this together for you. I can tell by looking at those that they were not professionally done.

I agree with this statement.
By the way, have I mentioned my wife is a freelance graphic designer?

I think it should be a needle with "Reynolds Medical" inside and underneath, in purple if you like, you should have the slogan "I Get In Ya".

Circle with no gradient, but agreed. Hire someone. Seems like a guy recently got someone from eastern Europe on one of those bid sites and they did a solid job for im sure less than $100.

The color should be darker, and it should be in the shape of a bass guitar.

I decided to go with the circle and changed the color from purple to red. I'll mail you the bill.

Of course the logo is purple. I'd expect nothing less from Howard.

Doug...come on. You can't use this as a logo. It looks like Clip-Art.

Not only that but it is probably not very scalable for when you buy your full-page ad in the NYT.

Hey ryan~
What font is that? It has some similarity to the one my professional (whom I hired on Friday) showed me. He had asked me for a rough sketch of what I had in mind.
Thanks Swamp, for your help and advice. I'll post the final product later this week.
