- We DO want a representation of a monkey that works well in color and black &amp; white (full body, silhouette, face, or something else) 
- We DO want a monkey that looks fun, unique and full of personality 
- We DO want to suggest somehow in the image that the monkey has &quot;mojo&quot; - e.g. spirit, power, magic, potency, energy, glow, etc. 
- We DO want to include the name Monkey Mojo with the tagline Games that Move You in smaller letters below. 
- We DO want to convey the positive spirit that many associate with monkeys (energy, action, creativity, cleverness, fun) 
- We DO want to appeal to males and females who are 5 - 25 years old 
- We DO want something clean and sleek, that&#39;s not cluttered or too messy looking 
- We DO need to include a TM with both &quot;Monkey Mojo&quot; and &quot;Games that Move You&quot; 
 
- We DO NOT want to represent any video game controllers in our logo 
- We DO NOT want our monkey to look like either the monkey named &quot;mojo&quot; from the Simpsons cartoon or the simian villain named &quot;mojo&quot; from the PowerPuff Girls cartoon. We discovered these monkeys after we selected this name. 
- We DO NOT want an image that conveys the danger, dirtiness or destructiveness that some people associate with monkeys 
- We DO NOT want a monkey face that looks like generic clip art (if you plan to include a face in your logo design) - personality! :) 
 
Some Possible Design Features to convey the spirit of the name: 
- Option 1: Have a monkey jumping on / squashing / shattering / impacting one of the words in our company name. 
- Option 2: Have a monkey striking a heroic or active pose - e.g. climbing, leaping, flying, kicking, etc. 
- Option 3: You make up something cool and wow us 
 
--- LOOKS WE LIKE 
- Icons from various American Football teams - e.g. miami dolphins, seattle seahawks, denver broncos 
 
- Logo of monster energy drinks - we love the black background, the monster claw mark, and the glow. Great triple-layered meaning (letter M + &quot;monster was here&quot; claw mark + unmistakeable depiction of power). This is brilliant. 
 
- Mighty Mouse - 2010 reboot (rumored) - http://toolzofthetrade.blogspot.com/2010/05/in-development-mighty-mouse.html - we like the general look and heroic pose of the mouse but not the background color or overly busy look of the rest of the poster. We prefer something much cleaner &amp; sleeker in overall composition. 
 
- Flying Giraffe - http://loopydave.deviantart.com/art/Flying-giraffe-258060603 - the graphic quality and the whimsical spirit of this picture make us smile every time we see it. 
 
- Pandamonium 1 - http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7Jf2tOY4lnY/UCmhOFZnL6I/AAAAAAAACRI/xz1ML1XucsQ/s400/Pandamonium+11th+Anniversary+Ale.jpg - This hilarious image has an edginess and self-consciously ridiculous quality of the kind that might be interesting to invoke. It&#39;s also way too messy for a logo, however. 
 
- Pandamonium 2 - http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71IUnvBnsfL._SL1000_.jpg - This simple and clever absurd artwork uses negative space cleanly on an interesting gritty background. 
 
- Netherrealm Studio has a logo with a great-looking font that matches the company name in its look - the back-to-back Rs right in the middle are especially unique and memorable - but also a great swirling orange whirlpool / sun background that suggests power and magic. We think both elements are great. http://b.vimeocdn.com/ts/124/662/124662022_640.jpg

Great designs, very polished.  Very versatile designer.  Too bad there&#39;s no &quot;hire&quot; link to hire him for other work.
