Extra notes: Hi. I already have a logo I like. I want to: 1) change the color, 2) unhook or crop the company name (Nancy Lee Designs) from the logo icon so I can use the logo without it. I have tried and I cannot do it in a professional looking way. I want to use this logo on my new website, so it will need to be done in a web-friendly color.

I attached two files, below. The first file shows a brown logo, which is the original color. I wanted to change it, and I came up with the red-pink color but it has too much pink. I was over-writing the brown color...didn't work.

My business is jewelry design, making mostly custom jewelry. I'm a one-person shop. I need to get my website up and running soon so I can begin to sell my work from it.
