Need a stylish sleek logo for my forum http://w11.zetaboards.com/ClanD/index/ in place of where it says "Zeta Boards", preferably with a similar theme to the forum to blend in smoothly, with the text "Clan D". I don't have any particular preference for the text effects other than *sleek* and *stylish*, perhaps with a with no excessive effects.
Not sure how to describe it but this kind of effect on the text would good http://www.iphone-wallpaper.co.uk/images/wallpaper/121071224313-silver-apple-logo.jpg (the way it kinda shines glossily rather than being dull 2d text.
If anyone could have a go at this and offer me some examples/attempts to have a look at I'd really appreciate it. (I can be found on HoN on WalzY whenever I'm online, or just pm me on the forums if you need me)
Thanks,
WalzY

(been changing the theme around a bit, but I'm settled on the current orange/black one)
Also, still looking for someone to have a go at this for me :)

Walzy, are any of these to your liking? I am by no mean good at this stuff, just tried some basic options. If you want, I can try to improve those with some additional instructions from you, or restart everything.

Hey, thanks for doing this! The first one is perhaps closest so far to what I'm after. I've put it on the forum (and will keep putting the best logo available on the centre of the forum): http://w11.zetaboards.com/ClanD/index/ to show how it looks. For improvements, it's perhaps a little big (as it's covering the nav bar atm). I think perhaps the shining effect on the top left should go. Would like the corners/edges rounded (a bit like my CAI). Text is quite nice with the shiny effect, but possibly a less rounded font. Perhaps silver text with a grey background, kinda similar to this but with the glossyness? http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/337/a/5/gimp_glossy_text_tutorial_by_svengraphdesign-d4i0kdb.jpg
Sorry, information overload and it probably only makes sense in my head! :p I'm gonna keep updating the logo on the forum with my favourite and say how I'd like it improved each time. No pressure to do any more work, entirely voluntary - thanks for doing that logo though!
