Brief Summary

We need to design the best logo that would go in the upper Left Corner of this site to replace the logo there. For all logos submitted, I want to see a screenshot of the site (or at least the top left part of the site) so I can see that the logo fits perfectly with the design:

I'm potentially imagining a logo that partially goes behind the yellow box below or is somehow connected to it. If it doesn't, it can still be great. That's just an idea.

    Hey everyone. I hope I don't seem like I'm leading anyone on each time I say that we really like either logo, but I have to say that the client really likes the Lemon squeeze one #66.I'm starting to agree with him. I'm thinking it would be nice if it had a little something to flesh out the top blue area, and maybe if the logo was fleshed out a little bit. The logo could probably be a little bit larger, the text a little bit wider, and the gradient could probably be perfected; also, the lemon and arrow part could probably be a little bit sharper or something. Just some ideas. It looks really good up there.

    Hey everyone. #63 and #68.

    However #67 perfected the last idea 100%. Great work man! It could be it. Can you put up a version with the whole page below it so I can see how the whole site will work rather than just a chunk of it.

    Also, #66 brought something totally new to the table--that lemon thing.WOW! Great Concept. Can you Embelish upon it a little bit--maybe borrow somethings from the other really good ones I just mentioned.

    Ok, now it's getting really crazy--a little bit too crazy. I'm kinda running out of steam of helpful direction-steering things to say. To win this, it's going to take just making something unobtrusively and perfectly fits int he upper left corner. Whatever that is, I don't know.

    Also, check how I add that orange arrow facing down over the yellow box:
    http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e…dea2-1.jpg

    I'm not saying just put all that stuff randomly together like I did. I'm just showing yo how it looks cool. It needs to make sense though. Mine currently does not.

    An idea based on Atrox's idea: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e…oidea2.jpg

    NOTE: I love his check-mark as showing the blue background. That's a great idea to take advantage of that nice blue and not be too yellow.

    Here's a comment from my client: A folder w/check could be something. It can have a double meaning, if everything checks out in the file its sweet submission.

    ...Pretty much, check the above yousendit.com link and replace that house with a folder with a check through it or a folder with something happening to it that makes it just fit perfectly into the top left corner of the site.

    Otherwise, I want to note somethings that are very good in some of these designs:

    -when there is use of the blue background--for instance if you can see the blue background through parts of the logo. I don't want a bulky logo. I don't want to hide all the blue background up there. The site is already too yellow, so let's not make it too much more yellow.
    -I like what #26 has going on for the style and font of the text
    -I like the shadow that lies on the blue background for the text in #26
    -I like how #20 does that blue space thing I was talking about. The logo is not just one yellow block--you can see through most of it, and most of it is actually blue.
    -I like the yellow arrow aiming down from #21
    -I like the yellow arrow aiming up from #23
    -I like the shape and feel of the paper airplane from #23

    Lastly, I'd like to see the aspects of #23 and #26 combined with a Folder somehow and made to fit perfectly in the upper left and top of this site without hiding the nice blue.

    I combined several ideas to come up with this: http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.p…0773320CEC

    I like the way it flows and just fits. Maybe we can make something like this fit, but with a file folder instead of a house in the left side. The folder needs to have the rounded swoop effect that the arrow does--that's what makes it fit perfectly. It goes with the roundedness of the black tabs.
