I have a buddy that's decided to raise pigmy goats as housepets, and now he wants to use an image of a goat as a logo for his jetski business..

Here's my rough first draft... never "tooned" a goat before.. [Smile]

Looks appealing enough but what do I know about goats...That other horn seems to want to be in front of the circle to me.

Can goats be housebroken?
One would hope.

I like it ...simple, "Goat Like"

Don't beleive Joe..he knows PLENTY about Goats, even more about sheep..(wink!)

heh.. I recently spent two weeks at my buddy's place and no, I don't think goats can be housebroken. He keeps 'em in pens while they're in the house, and are usually only in the house when it's too cold for 'em to be outside since they're still pretty young.

Looks more like a giraffe face than a goat

Gavin, last time I looked at one, then looked it up in a book, giraffes have either three or five horns. (sounds ODD doesn't it!)

(edited to add P.S.- nice logo!)

The third horn is between the eyes and up a bit- funny how the giraffe looks like a goat [Wink]

I think it looks pretty good mike.

I do think both horns should be out of the circle.

Some goats have little goatees don't they?
Maybe adding that may help to convey the image better too.

Nice logo:)

10 years ago my mother owned the only Grade A Goat dairy in ID. I think he looks great and like the horn behind the circle. I think if you were to bring it forard you would also have to move the ear forward as well.

To me it almost looks like he is winking. The pygmy goats we had were very mischeivious and always looking for something to get into. I think you caught that look nicely.

BTW-GOAT stands for Get Out Any Time. Just ask my neighbors [Wink]

I like it a lot !! I also think the horn needs to be pulled to the front. It just looks like the top of his head is a little turned or twisted. Other than that it's a great design. Love IT! [Applause]
