As for the "rip-offs," most of my logos involve things I find around the internet. I make no pretensions about that. But, I enjoy trying to find images that can represent a team name, and then manipulating in photoshop. Honestly, I doubt I will ever evolve much beyond that as I have absolutely zero artistic skills. But, I still like being able to provide what I can to the forum.

I think the term "rip-off" wasn't meant to be used to imply any negativity here as it may commonly to. And thanks Knuckler for the kind words, I too, enjoy looking at your logos very much, and use many in my own solo play.
And to echo some of Treches comments, artistic ability is just a part of a logo, there is also the way designers align or place things to reveal what they see of the world. In my opinion it's these different perspectives and interpretations that make a logo or artwork that much more special and interesting. I have to admit I lack much of this ability to show my own view of things through my artworks, and to improve I can only observe other's logos and try to understand why everything is as it is instead of otherwise.

That's about it. And I really had to nitpick to come up with that... |
Well, I wanted to show that the mammoth is crossing over the mountains, conquering over the obstacles, therefore the leg is over the wordmark. But I can see how it is distracting, maybe I will try one with the leg behind the letter. Thanks for the suggestion.
