Need help with new 10thP Yuma logo

Mike does great work I'm real happy about how these turned out. But, we can't decide on purple or red for our next round of promo. Vote? thoughts?

you should try yellow or orange, i got a feeling that it would blend well with the design a bit better

You ever think about using a Lama instead of the snake? Then you could have the Yuma Lama as your mascot.

Otherwise I like the purple.

The snake needs a name too:) Maybe Eddie? Oh wait I don't think Beanie would be cool with that:)

Is this the official Yuma logo?

They're both nice. I'd pick the color that best compliments your school/gym interior. Do you have red mats or purple mats in the gym?

We had a test jump for the C17 in Yuma awhile back. The wingspan of that monster behind a purple moon would be sick!

I'm glad Mike likes to help out and create logos for 10th planet members.
I think we should always strive to help each other out.
That being said, I want to offer some art advise.

I think the logo should be kept consistent with the other moons.
Meaning, it should be graphic. I wouldn't use a real picture of a snake
and slap it on there. To be honest, it makes it look cheesy. If you want
to incorporate a rattle snake, make it graphic. Currently, the snake takes
up a lot of room and makes part of the text difficult to read. The text is the
part you want most visible to advertise the name of the business. I think if
you had a graphic snake wrapped around the edge of the moon, or coiled
up inside the moon, it wouldn't detract from the text and would be part of the moon.
Also, most of the time, lens flares are a no no. You want to keep it all neat and clean.

As far as color goes, if you have to choose between red and purple, I would choose red.
However, I would also suggest a nice tan color. If you look at art work from 3:10 To Yuma,
you will find some cool "wanted" type posters with nice tan colors. It might be nice if the moon
incorporated that color scheme. Yuma is in the desert and the color scheme would help represent
that.

Anyway,
that's just my .02 cents.
I'll attach a picture of what I mean by graphic snake.

If the mats are red and black, I'd go with the red Yuma moon color for sure.

Art advice is always helpful, thank you. I have no specific training in graphic design at all so i don't know of the no-no's and rules. I just try to give the guys what they like, again thanks for the advice it is appreciated.

I hate to be a naysayer, but I don't think the logo is readable at all? It needs to be a vector snake, more of illustration than a Photoshop job.

I could maybe help, if you guys wanted? I def. don't want to step on any toes. I had done a layout for the "Rapists don't Box" t-shit, but was too big a pussy to finish & submit it. I think it would've won though, of course I do.

Brian the logo looks awesome in both colors. With that being said, I like the purple.
