hehe...... i knew that was going to come up. no no we don't :)
I need something simple and recognizable. My current one sucks too hard to reproduce.
any sugestions?

too me, you´re still in the obvious-mode, after that you´lll soon turn into the funky-mode and then disaster-mode;ending up in creative-mode.
Hang in there, DON´T hold back

Personally I wouldn't take the name to literally. I saw the name and thought "porn". How about focusing on his head and giving him a porno moustache?
Just a thought...

try keeping it purely typographical
try it without the guy. If he has to be in it, then I wouldn't have the shadow. Or you could just have the shadow so it looks like the shadow of the letter 'l' in blue!?????
try in on 3 lines, like so
blue
man
design
just a thoughtoh.... and try a more contemporary font

why not just have blueman, like your profile!??!?

My 3D blueman is too hard to reproduce. I want to have a simple yet professional looking design. I thought that by having a simple blue guy it would be easier to reproduce on different types of media.

could be cheese but try drawing him in squares, or even better try using some imagination. I guess you have some?
- Blueman0
So basically the guy that i have in 1,2,3 is out.....too washroom like and doesn't work....... hmm. ok well what about any of the other ones..... more action ones?
Squares eh......hmm I'll see what i can do.
Well what does everyone think of my 3d guy? that i have.

check my first post... and try doing hundreds of different variations.... the only way you'll learn is through trial an error.... Try not to be too literal with your designs....

Blueman,
Colour it blue and you might just have a good starting point...
If you decide to use an icon along with text (your examples) try to steer clear of both descriptive copy 'blue man' and iconology 'the blue man symbol'. Both offer the same explanation/meaning so you only need one or the other to communicate the message.
Also, just because you have the word 'blue' in your company name it doesn't necessarily mean that the logo should be blue...orange could be both different and contradictory to the norm...
...bottom line, have fun.

Blueman I suggest you not look for specific tips for this logo. I suggest you ask us to assist with recommending some books to you that would be helpful to your design in general. There are too many things that are just "wrong" here and you have quite a ways to go. Let's suggest some books for this guy everyone! List'em.

You'd be better incorporating a 'man' icon to replace the 'L' in Blueman a la A.I (the logo), the Steven Spielberg movie.
In terms of books for reference, check out 'A smile in the Mind' by Barry McAlhone and David Stuart, published by Phaidon.
