Welcome to the forum cook. Please read THESE threads, which explain the forum rules and give some of our history. Enjoy your stay!

Um, that's not a logo. It's a photo illustration, or a montage, maybe, but not a logo. For example, how would you have that embroidered onto your baristas' polo-style shirts? If you want to design the logo yourself I suggest you do some research into what constitutes a strong logo. But I really recommend that you hire a professional logo designer. (And that's not just any graphic designer...logo design is a niche specialty!)

Really?

Because your not a designer I would advise you to ether research what makes a good logo or hire a designer.

not much else to say but Agreed.

a cutesy graphic at best. i thought when i first saw it that was an inspirational photo but then noticed it looked posterized and then as I scrolled down I saw what I "feared".
