I'm gonna be brutal with you then, either you make it your friend, or you should concidering doing else than logos (which of course isn't necissarily a bad thing). One thing is making a logo in photoshop for a contest, but you could never give that logo away to a company. And you know, there's that thing about form and function

I wasn't saying that with something bad in mind, it just takes a lot of time for me, I'm not good with illustrator. The pen tool from Il is different from the one from PS so it's a bit confusing, confusion costs time and contest are for applying skills not learning them.
I respectfully disagree, the best way of learning design is, designing. When designing for a real client you will have more restrictions than in a contest, so why not challenge yourself? Do something you've never done before. If it doesn't work then it doesn't, and you will probably come out of it a better designer.
