			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has taken us a while but we are now proud to show off our new logos / branding. We needed a new look that was more professional than our DIY logos, but retained a connection with our old &#8220;I Love Spreadsheets&#8221; tag line.</p>
<p>We turned to Neil at <a title="Studio Maximus graphic designers" href="http://www.studiomaximus.net/#all">Studio Maximus</a> who came up trumps with a company logo and a logo for our tagline.</p>
<p>This is our new main logo</p>
<p><a href="http://excel-expert.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/NewLogo.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-409" title="Excel Expert new logo" src="http://excel-expert.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/NewLogo.jpg" alt="Excel Expert new logo" width="660" height="451" /></a></p>
<p>So what are the hidden meanings behind the new logo?</p>
<p>We wanted to make use the two &#8220;X&#8221;s in the phrase &#8220;Excel Expert&#8221; so we started with two over lapping &#8220;X&#8221;s</p>
<p><a href="http://excel-expert.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/2xs.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-411" title="2xs" src="http://excel-expert.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/2xs.jpg" alt="2xs" width="660" height="451" /></a></p>
<p>This resulted in the running man figure you see above, which nicely reflects that a lot of clients see us as a fast rescue service.</p>
<p>In the past we have become well known for the use of the &#8220;I Love Spreadsheets&#8221; logo based on the world famous &#8220;I Heart NY&#8221; logo. By tweaking the head of the running man above we were able to come up with our tagline logo below.</p>
<p><a href="http://excel-expert.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/iheartss.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-414" title="I Love Spreadsheets" src="http://excel-expert.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/iheartss.jpg" alt="I Love Spreadsheets" width="660" height="763" /></a></p>
<p>We hope you like the logos and that you will be seeing a lot of them.</p>
