Our logo - for a travel site in Greece.

I would like to put a larger version of just the logo onto this forum, but I don't know how to do it???

I am no expert on this. But this is what I think :

Good Idea ,the 'T' is the trunk of the tree.
But the graphics need to be a higher quality I think.
Try using say a digital photo of a tree ?

I think that the words need to be a little bit more readable.

I shall look at ways of improving it.

Thanks again

Thanks for your post.
I have a few comments:
If your logo cannot be reproduced in black and white then you should reconsider the design. Avoid the transparencies, rainbow colours, and effects. Once you are down to 2-3 colors you probably want to save your file as a GIF for better quality.

Your logo is off-balance because of the 'ravel' weighing down the right side. I do like your 'T' tree concept but the layout needs a bit of work. I understand your difficulty with the text. If Olive Grove was on the left...the tree would be too far right. Hit the sketch pad and try mixing it up :)

Take Care,
Grease

I would suggest simplifying A LOT.
Try the olive/T tree in just green and a simplified olive shape over T(maybe not even touching) and get rid of the other superfluous colors and the soft edges.
Then write out "Olive Grove Travel" in a simple professional typeface below your olive tree symbol. Play with the size of the tree until it looks balanced with the type. But definitely ditch the hazy blue-yellow-green-aqua gradient background.
