    Guys,

    I actually need a logo for a company I am starting up. This will go on the front door, mugs, stationary etc. All I have is some free form mspaint to go from and it ain't pretty.

    What I want is something that looks like a round neon sign, 5 red arrows on the outside and silver neon or chrome lettering, spelling TCCM inside the circle of arrows. I would also like to see the same design with coloring reversed (silver arrows/red letters)

    I have lost my photoshop (when I lost my job), and didn't have neon fonts anyhow.

    This is the best I could come up with using mspaint and my mouse, so please don't laugh to hard, but you can laugh, since I do.

    I need something that looks professional and can be scaled to fit multiple items. I thought of using my phun friends before I sought out a professional marketing team to do this for me. I love the talent here, and I know we always try to help each other out.

    If you can do this, I will paypal, mail you a check, or something. Amount depends on what I have in my account at the time. Or if you want something else, I will barter. (Minimum $20 to winning submitter, figured I better place a minimum) And if you are a professional artist trying to drum up business, I will provide a link to your web location on my website.

    To be honest, I won't be the judge, it will a panel of people that will be working with me, so I might love something submitted and have to go with something else.

    Thanks for any help!

    I will leave this be for 2 weeks to see what you guys can do!

    ^ Wow! I was just trying to find some arrow brushes, and I see this! Frankly I don't think I can top that, I'll still try and pump something out, but that's really great.

    Exceptional work TheNewGuy! :tup2:

    I wanted to search for arrow brushes, but decided to make them my self.

    It took about an hour and a half to make, overall. Tried different style, but didn't want to go too far from what was requested.

    Any help is greatly appreciated. Like I said, I'll give it two weeks to make sure nobody is rushed and several people have a chance to submit.

    only just found this thread and thought i'd give it a go. wasn't sure if you meant like a glowing kind of neon, or just the style of neon sign, i've gone with a kind of metallic chrome to the arrows as well as the text. slight shadow as well but that can easily be removed

    We were thinking of the glowing neon sign style, but completely open to interpretation.

    Love the arrows on this one. Can you perhaps change the letter fonts to be smilar in font style to the arrows? Thicker letters perhaps?
