I don't think it looks bad. Maybe it needs some tweaks -- are they willing to work with you on the design?

I think the OPSIO should be bolder. But since I know nothing of the company, I don't know if your concept is hitting the mark. What kind of company is it?

I first have to make the logo, then they will tell me if i can do it. It's i finacial company, but they wanted the Crown because of the motto ... nobody's better

I agree that "OPSIO" should be bolder. Also did they approve the colors? They don't really speak "finacial company" to me... also this sounds kinda clishe but maybe turn the S into a $?... good luck

I would avoid using a $ symbol. Work with the crown idea -- knock out the shape of the crown in a square/cirlce, crop it, turn it, angle it, skew it (slightly) just to make it more intersting and have more impact. Try a design that is more traditional that does not have the glass/shine effect. Try different crown designs -- maybe they need to see different styles.

Just throwing ideas out there -- maybe it will help you think of something inspiring.

They wanted the logo and the site in the color blue and orange ...

Just want to add, I think the crown is a bit too fun for that type of company. You should try toning it down a bit by tilting the outer edges inward until they're almost at 90 degrees (but not quite). Bulk up the text a bit, maybe shrink the crown and place it just above the S, and bam there's your logo :)

Play around like KHDZN mentioned, no doubt you'll get something going.

I agree with the company. The crown needs to be original and communicate the idea of being the best.

Also, how will the logo look in black and white?
