Need info about WOT logo please

I can only see one image but I think I can guess the other. The dragon is particular to Rand al'Thor, the main character in the series. The serpent eating it's tail is an ancient symbol of the Aes Sedai (magic-users in this world) and combined with the wheel is the overall logo for the series. There are different versions of the serpent and wheel. You have posted a modern one that, to me, looks kind of tribal. I prefer the older one that was actually a chapterhead throughout the series as that is the one I have tattooed. Hope this helps.
Ryan, thank you so much for your quick response. She was unaware there was a different serpent/wheel logo. Would you be able to post a picture of it or send a link where I could find it for her? Not sure why the dragon isn't showing up. She's going to crop the picture and I'll resend it.
Or if he had a specific favorite character I would go with along the lines of a challenge coin. You'll have to google them. I don't know how to paste pics on here.
I like this one more:
What Ryan is talking about are the different versions of the same logo where wheel and/or serpent look slightly different.

Not sure how I would know who his favorite character is, but maybe something I will look further into. Here is a pic of the dragon.
I think I found the original logo here vs the modern one you were talking about...
Thanks,
Carla

I think that the series logo is more recognisable and unique, while the dragon can represent various things, even though it looks cooler.
This one is my favorite, and I think it's the most representative of the series. But the dragon is ok too, those desings are the chapter headers in the books, so yeah, he'll know it's from the wheel of time, don't worry =)
Which picture should she go with?
