Like Aico says, how long it may (or may not) take to make it is not the only factor that goes into the pricing or value of the logo ...
If I were to create a logo, I would expect to be paid for the entire creative process - thinking about how it will look/envisioning the layout, the draft, and the polished end product.

I completely understand your point as well as aico's
however, by the same token the budget of the purchaser should also be taken into consideration
also the likelyhood that the artist will be contracted out for future work
also the rules of supply and demand............as I type this some kid just downloaded photoshop and will be pretty much a guru by this timne next year
another kid is on his way to photoshop class as I speak
the logo I requested is beyond simple and before I pay more for something I know is only worth around 20 bucks of anyones time I will outsource it to india on rentacoder.com or something I am not looking for someone with a marketing degree in logo creation
the problem with GFY is that a lot of guys around here are caught up in the hype and really believe that they should command top dollar for every little job
the same people believe that everyone here is rich
all bullshit
there is a hungry designer who could use those 20 bucks for a few minutes of his time
and that is the person this thread is directed toward
