Leave the background Transparent and drop little shadow for other images might looks much more better .

Thats what i meant 3D's always look good with Transparent background in little shadow.

It's a good logo, but not really well suited for the web. 2d/flat images tend to work better, I think.

I agree with Quillz, the logo should look like to XF's default style: thin, transparent, with a mixture of white / blue colors.
In short, should be more "Web 2.0".

A logo is a real tricky thing to do. You can write pages and pages about what your site is about, but to capture that with some colour, a few letters, and maybe a slogan isn't an easy task. A logo is important because it's usually the first thing people see when they visit your site.
I like your design, I would agree with some of the other opinions though regarding the "web 2.0" feel. The second design (nice job) catches me more than the first one. Of course, that's just my 2 cents. I'm no pro by any stretch of the imagination

Thanks for the comments. Here is yet another version and I really really like this one. All of it was created in photoshop cs5 with no 3d tools.

Very nice. I'm still quiet fond of the default XenForo logo, but yours certainly aren't bad at all.
