A Logo for Cambodia Trip Part I

Recently, Mr Danny's been assigned to design an official logo for YTPS 1st external CIP trip to Cambodia with the P5 this coming September '07. So with whatever free time that I have, I have been committed to designing the best logo that I know how.

To design the logo, I needed an inspiration. What better representation for Cambodia than UNESCO's World Heritage Site;- the Angkor Watt. The Angkor Watt is a large ancient complex consisting of over one thousand temples, ranging in scale from nondescript piles of brick rubble scattered through rice fields to the magnificent Angkor Wat, said to be the world's largest single religious monument. Many of the temples at Angkor have been restored, and together they comprise the most significant site of Khmer architecture.
(It is of key interest to note that the movies Tomb Raider and Mortal Combat 1 were shot on location at Angkor Watt. The Angkor Watt is deemed to be so important that even the flag of Cambodia has a picture of Angkor Watt!)

So I had to browse the net for a nice picture of the Angkor which will provide me the inspiration behind my design.
After a few tries, I finally found what I was looking for;-

Though I've designed some logos over the years, most, if not all my designs are graphic intensive. This time I've decided to use vector art to design the logo and I used Macromedia Flash 8 as my design platform.
