Got ya. those were rough drafts, but I think I got it right this time.

I plan on getting a web page, I would elaborate a little more on what services we offer, but I am not a sponsor on the site and don't want to step out of bounds.

Looks ok. A bitt shakey around the edges-i like a crisper look to logos. Have you tried anything that wasn't word-based? Something that conforms more to traditional logos [oval/rectangle/triangle] ? I only ask b/c if you reduce the current one, it will become lost in translation, where-as a shape-based logo will be recognizable at any size.

I know...But it could be confusing. Try and make the P a little smaller, or make the T for Tuned a little bigger.

Try putting a tiny outline around the letters, too. An orange outline around the black in Perfomance, and a black outline around the orange in Tuned. Would make it look a little sharper.

+1 its looks like the P is trying to be used in the word tuned also. Some sort of resizing of the words is needed.

Thanks for the advice, but you lost me , I can draw just about anything, freehand,but I am new to the computer world.
I designed it on the paint program,but it is very limited.
I have photo shop 6.0 and Microsoft picture it,but I liked the font I used in the paint program and cant seem to find it on the other 2 programs. any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
