Help with a logo

[Yeldarb]

I'm trying to come up with an idea for a logo for my site... the name is barbdwyer.com, so i was thinking something to do with barb wire, but i can't think of a good way to tie the barbdwire with the text, plus im not very artistic. does anyone have any ideas?

[kO2n]

I would put barb wire around an object. Whats ur site about? Choose an object that relates to your site.

Viru.

its a web design business, maybe a computer...
thanks for the reply

[grimdeath]

easy make a computer with a barbed wire connected instead of a phone line or a cable modem taht shoudl look cool

[Yeldarb]

awesome, i think im going to try that
u think it would look better being mor realistic? or cartoony?

[Yeldarb]

ok, heres a rough draft. plz give suggestions, but keep in mind that it is a VERY early draft :)

[jay-em]

lol, yeah, ur right, i can't draw barb wire though...

[mlk]

what you could have done is a mouse plus a cord leaving from it, which would actually be barbed wire...

[Yeldarb]

thats a good idea too

Don't make your stuff so... bulky

[Yeldarb]

bulky?

[Soul]

I dunno, your style just seems really awkward and bulky

[mdipi]

[Yeldarb]

and btw, that title (directly above) really doesnt work.. :(

[Coppertop]

Oh thats nice. (the new pic)

[asphaltcowboy]

I really dont like it :-\ hard to read.. and waaay to 'photoshoppy'

I fiddled with the idea of writting out the name in *barb~wire.ish* letters and it didn't ever look right.. the `pewter w/ barb'd tail didn't fly well in my mind either..

<jmo>

I think maybe something more along the lines of a circular badge like thing with the name wraping around with an image of a chunk of barbed wire in center would say it best ... (?) ...

here's a couple o' doodles on the barb part::
