I agree that the letters need shadows.  I will add these when I prepare the
image for placement on the web site that it was designed for.

You lost me on the other shadow suggestion.  The upper left shadow on which
plate, the larger one or the small one?  What do you mean by "brighter
shadow"?  The blue background on the smaller disk is darker at the top
because it is a gradient.  The smaller disk doesn't cast a shadow because I
think the image is cleaner without it.  There are two lights casting
shadows, one light is not as bright as the other.  I realize the shadows are
kinda harsh, but I think that adds some impact to the logo.  Or maybe not?
