    TheBigFish, I think the logos are distinct enough that nobody is going to be upset that a corporate recruiting company has a vaguely similar style logo as a world series of poker player. Thanks for pointing that out, though. It just goes to show that there really aren't too many completely original logos out there.

    11plus, I'm really sorry for this, i'm sure you haven't copied...but the concept already exists in a very famous site...http://www.philhellmuth.com/ the font is certainly different...but the concept of using p to strike H is alike.

    No. 10 & 11. I consider the crown irrelevant to the nature of our business.
