Design a Company Logo for TradersLaboratory.com

TradersLaboratory.com

We just took over operations of Traders Laboratory (TL). TL is a financial forum and has been in business since 2006, but we've owned TL for only a few months.

Traders Laboratory is run mainly through the contribution of our members. We provide a powerful online financial network where you can find traders from around the world discussing on numerous forums related to the financial markets.

Traders Laboratory provides a clean and respectable environment for quality trading education featuring a Discussion Forum, Broker & Vendor Reviews, Trading Videos, Live Chat Room, and Trading Blogs. The numerous forums on the portal support discussion about various topics related to trading from Technical Analysis to Trading Psychology where individuals discuss and learn how to tackle emotions like fear and greed.

Our strong team of moderators ensures that the integrity of the portal and respect of the members is maintained to provide a comfortable and quality environment for traders.

Members and potential members of the TL forum. People who are attracted to our forum are generally more experienced traders rather than new traders just starting out.

We are looking for a new design of our company logo. We feel the logo currently looks dated. We'd like a designer to reinvent the logo to reflect a fresh, clean, web 2.0 look and feel.

Design Requirements:
- Stay within the existing color pallet
- DO NOT include the tag line "Market Scientists"

Other Requirements:
- Designer must provide working/raw files once design is complete
- Designer must allow at least 3 revisions

Be Creative:
- You are allowed to try new fonts
- You do not have to keep the "TL"
- Feel free to provide several comps

The current logo is attached.

This project is a chance for you to show your creativity. You can take the words "Traders Laboratory" and translate them into a literal design (possibly using beakers and other Lab icons in the design) or develop a creative symbol, or position the words in a creative way. We're really looking for out of the box thinkers and original designs.
