My opinion, FWIW --

Perfect, just as designed...

A logo must be geared toward the seeker --

In this case, it clearly shows Penn, shows Parts, shows a wrench which means repair or replacement, and shows a gear which denotes mechanical parts.

A lot more can be inserted -- but then it becomes cluttered.

The white space is also useful with the red and black.

In an internet search, this will not matter for a logo -- and for folks looking for Penn parts, they already know it is for a reel.

For folks who have never worked on a reel -- it wouldn't make any difference anyway.

This would look great as a patch, or sticker -- could be used on hats, jackets, shirts, toolboxes, workbenches, boats, etc..

However Mo & Scott decide -- will be best.

Just my opinions..

Best,

And of course, then we sacked PennParts.com entirely in favor of MysticParts.com

We did make some of those hats...I now have them on clearance :)

Not only that, but it looks like a sunrise over the water.  Albeit, slightly abstract but you can see it.
I dig it!

In the new logo for MysticParts.com, yes, it does! That was intentional :)

I guess you've already ruled out a photo of a young woman in a bikini?

Kind of a done deal :) I've ordered business cards and everything.
