you chopped it when you downsized it. you got a flat bottom. It bugs me that there is just so much white space.

Yes, I know about the crop fail :x

But do you mean that there is to much white/transparency in between the wheel or?

Please be more accurate :C

As said, it's not a logo. Way too detailed and contains much stuff.
For you I found some examples of logos associated with fire:

Fancy vectoring mate.

Looking at your original post:
I would have to say that the style of the flames/crowns and the purple 'wheel' are much to different to be together. Either spruce up the purple or simplify the flames and the whole thing will work better together.

Looking at the new ones: Too much dead space, first one was a better layout.

Spartan: Hm, i see what you mean, but i still like the second one better, most people i know who has seen it does, even my teacher...

Deiz: I know you have to got to be talking about the first try, please check the update.

As i said earlier, the flat part at the bottom is a cropping failure.


Ps. Please take in mind that it's signifying a carriage wheel, so it's thickness would be realistic looking.

F.eks.

Really good stuff here!!!!

I don't know, something looks bad there. Probably because there's too much white space in the wheel. Also, "fat" flame and thin wheel outline don't match imo. ;_;
