Yeah your current logo is horrible. And speaking of horrible stuff, I think you should decrease the tags, deemphasise lesser important links and work on the padding. It all looks VERY messy. On top of that, I have no idea what your website is about - until I look at every link to find that literally THE LAST link on the website is the explanation. Now for the logos. http://i.imgur.com/A6DcE80.png http://i.imgur.com/A6DcE80.png Bottom I dislike they look a bit corporate and doesn't convey anything about the site as far as I gather. Middle is kinda okay, but it just looks like financial discussion. The top ones. The tree: Nice logo, money grows on tree. Still, it is kind of "invenstment-y" but the logo itself is cool so I like it. The growing tree: It is cute, and something about money will grow. Brain: Kind of getting there, ideas = money. Now the logo itself is too monotone / too green and will be hard (like the tree) to draw and make nice in smaller situations. --- I don't think any of them 'clicks' with the site itself, but I can't really come up with something of my own. Maybe a lightbulb combined with a subtle $ inside and an upvote? It's a tough one. Or, since the name is valME, maybe just a profile shape with a $ inside? It connects the money with the "me" aspect. Or, a coin with an upvote inside it. That would signify that the 'upvotes' are the 'currency'/money.

This is all great feedback. Thank you. I was actually leaning toward the money tree/plant idea too (someone else brought up the idea of adding water/watering can which I really liked). Your point about drawing and making it look nice when it's small is an excellent point. The idea of a coin with an upvote inside is brilliant and would be much easier to make/use for small situations. I'll ask someone to draw a mock-up of that. I'm very much interested in finding a UI expert to help with the project.
