would this be better

You're moving somewhat in the right direction, but if you wanna have a logo, IMO, it has to be image and writing in one...You can't have the text outside of the image, there has to at LEAST be some overlapping between the two. Try writing "Star Wakeboard Industries" with like a shooting star behind it, or somehow incorporate a star into it.

This is constructive criticism, I think its great that you are trying to start this at such a young age. Also, just a sugestion, use a play on words, and open your target audience...change it from wakeboard to 'board'...there for you could use a play on words and call it "starboard industries" or "star-board inudustries" or something like that.

Take it or leave it, its just a suggestion.

Perhaps just a yellow star.... the star looks kinda cheesy. But I love your idea for a board company name.

I think the 1st star logo is ok, but would be better if you could mesh the words in with the star. Maybe do funky lettering instead of the plain stuff.

man this whole making a logo thing is harder than i thought

Thats better but make the star texture itself more appealing. I did this to give you an idea of something a tiny bit more complex.

CWBoarder691, Like it better now Wink

Try expanding the letters outside of the star also. Just to break the form a bit. Tell me what you think.

why not just use a yellow star and call it "star wakeboard" rather than having the name anywhere?

i can think of hundreds of company logos i can recognize without having to be literate (texaco, shell, mcdonalds, pepsi, etc)

It looks like someone just downloaded Adobe and wants to be an advertising wizard. Hire a prosfessional to do this. Your logo is the single most important visual of your business and you're trying to fart around with programs you dont know how to use. Not to be harsh, but you don't even appear to have any creative juices.

Building off of what BrandonC said, you should really learn how to use everything that Photoshop has to offer before creating your logo. Spend a lot of time messing around with EVERYTHING in the program.
