Thanks I like this direction. Is there a way to overlap the M & A keeping the M predominant?

Thanks?

What if the crossbar in the A did not go all the way to the bottom but half way instead, and the logo was taller & narrower?

I really like the font in # 6 but I still have not seen the icon I am looking for.

Thanks.

I like # 14, could I see some more variations of it perhaps including a cross bar in the A that mimics the font below?

Thanks

Hello is there any way you could try a couple of other fonts for the M?

Hi,

Can you specify to whom you're referring? I'm assuming it's NHR in post 26, but that will clarify things for the designers if you can reference the designer and/or the post number you want revised.

Thanks! :)

Yes that is the idea but could you use the M in # 21 and leave the gradiant in th reflected M. Also could you try it with the M "carved" ?

Thanks

v13 here's a quick mockup. If you decide to go with my design, we can look at additional variations/tweaks in the Revisions forum. Thanks!
