Non-Sports Business Logo Help
I'm working on creating a brand logo as I prepare to jump into self-publishing a series of books that I've been working on. My "talent" is in graphics manipulation, not creation and I'm really struggling to make this work the way I want it to. So, I'm asking for help.
I've created a mock-up of it (the hand-drawn crappy picture) of what I'd like it to look like. For whatever reason its posted sideways; it's supposed to be rotated 90 degrees right. The idea is three stacked books. The one on the bottom has its spine facing left. The one on top has its spine facing right. And the one standing up on the left has the spine facing forward. I'd like the whole logo to form an isometric square. So, that means the stacked books will be thicker than the one standing. The other pictures are what I've used to help me figure out how to configure my logo. The left and top books are the same color. The bottom book is different. The colors and layout of the books create a "P" and a "C" (my initials). The books are blue and red in my mock-up but I haven't settled on any colors. Maybe charcoal and gray or dark blue and dark red. I'm not completely sure, unfortunately. (A psp file where I could fiddle with the colors on my own would be awesome!!) I'd really appreciate any help anyone is willing to give. I know this is a bit different than what's usually requested. 300x300 or larger would be great. Thanks to whoever may help!

I’d suggest posting this on boards.sportslogos.net. They have a forum dedicated to general design where people will probably be able to help you better.

Thanks! They do have a good forum but 1) it feels weird to hop into a forum I've barely interacted with to ask for help on something like this (I asked here because I've been a part of this community for 15 years), and 2) they don't like me over there. I crossed a perceived line of theirs with my logo collection and, even though its been years, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't want to help me. Though I could be wrong.
And I might not get help here either, which is fine. It's an odd request.

Good luck... I wish I was skilled with graphics... would love to help you out, especially after all of your exceptional work (5000 logos) for all of us in the OOTPB Community. It may take week or so... things are slow around the Graphics Forum these days... very few active graphics guys that fill requests... maybe one of them will take on your request.

If you like, I can pass along the info of the graphic artist I hired for my company. Obviously, she would charge a fee.

Thank you! But I'm not there yet. I also have a friend who is a graphic artist. But he would charge as well.

Do you happen to have a psp file of it so I can fiddle with the coloring on my own?

I use paint.net which unfortunately does not make psp files, what other files can you use?
