I would appreciate any suggestions for my present logo here we sell a line of blacklights.

first, this should be posted in the 'submit logo for review' forum...but anyways...personally, i don't care for it. It looks like something created in MS Word or something, and is pretty dated in style.

try and develop a theme for your logo, surrounding what you do. perhaps hunt around to check out what similar sites are using.

hope that helps.

Your logo should tell something about your business.It should also help brand your site.

I would play with it a little more because it is really hard to brand only letters.

0/10 for creativity
I would suggest using word light and think of an image to use around it.. probably a bulb with black light coming out of it? I don't know.. probably the logo designers can give you some tips:))

good luck

Ive gotta agree with everyone above, it is pretty boring logo, and is very "word art" but this is something you could really easily make cool.
look at disney pixar, there is an animation they have with a lamp, if you had that lamp or something like it shining onto your words and highlighting them (like a black light is supposed to) it would be fairly cool.
but lots of ways to make a logo from these words.

Here here, would have looked great in 1966 but things have changed!

We all need to start somewhere though so good luck

Scrap it and do this..

Place an image that looks like a black light over the top of your company name. About 2-3 inches wide or so. Since BlackLights are dark and they make white things glow. It really should match.

Only one thing with that is you need a black background. So, I would use very little header that is black but not the whole site.

You can have this sample to use freely if you like.
