Calling all graphics folks...

Ok, since you guys like the wristbands so much, I thought I'd look into having some other things made up. Only problem is, there isn't really a ch.com "logo".
I'm REALLY bad at coming up with logo type stuff so I wanted to throw it out to you guys to see if anyone could come up with something cool.
I'd like to keep it fairly simple with no more than two colors. I'd also like to stick with the same font used throughout the site (treefrog font). If you'd want to try and put something together and don't have the font, let me know and I can send it to you.
I'd like to see something simple that would look good on the back of a t-shirt... something clear and legible, with no bad words! LOL
Anyone interested can send their files to me at deej@clusterheadaches.com.
Whatcha think?

I think it should be the same as the upper left corner of this page that says "CH.com Worldwide cluster headache support group" in the same style and colors.

Problem is that "ch.com" as in www.ch.com links to the Columbia House entertainment website. If you make the logo the url, you will have to use clusterheadaches.com.

Okay, I know it's more than 2 colors, but I think it's kind of cool.
Here's a grayscale version of the image

I don't think many people know their Greek methology enough to know what the heck that symbol represents Ghost. I would have never guessed it. 
I like Gators pic... very nice Gator.

Like most logos the idea is to capture attention, make people ask, then tell them it is a symbol for pain. The chers would know hence the explination with it. I agree it is different but I would assume Different is what we would want. Just my take I could be wrong. Hope some will understand though. The burst depicting a cluster attack.

That's funny you should mention that. I was wearing my "eyeball" clusterhead shirt in McDonalds last week. A guy asked if I could explain what it meant. After I finished telling him about CH's, he asked if I've ever asked God to end my headaches instead of taking shots.
I just walked away shaking my head.

Nice idea and the stuff posted here works......for us. However, it's not something one wants' to see on a CH pamphlet for example. Grotesque isn't a good idea but then that's just crabby old Charlie.
Go to it kids.

1. Goat Heads and Demons go hand in hand.
2. Goats bang their heads into stuff, and don't think once about it.
3. Goats have many uses.
4. We need a mascot.
5. Fuck Charlie, the old goat.
Hey. It's 2 colors, and one is transparent.

If this was for professional non-profit organization educational and promotional type materials, I would agree with you 100%. This stuff is more for the sufferers and their supporters and maybe to draw enough attention for someone to ask what it's all about.
Hey, I thought it was mean old Charlie. Don't go changing your name and confusing people now!

Just a quick stab at this. A logotype should be easily identifiable, easily transferable to any medium (so the simpler the the deisgn, the better) and nifty.
