Legacy Band logo and art request - Rising Feud

Hello everyone,

We're a newly started heavy metal band called Rising Feud. We've started with a few concerts and we have one studio recording but now we find ourselves in a desperate need for a logo and cover art. Unfortunately none of us have any skills in graphic design or similar and currently we do not have the cash to hire someone for this. We've seen this forum and we're hoping you guys might help.
I know that what we are asking in this thread might be a little too much as this forum from what we can see is only for logo requests and not for poster art or somethign similar. We've posted also simpler alternatives if this is too time consuming.

As written in the rules, we'll help here as much as we can with reviews etc.

1) What is the exact name you would like in your logo?
RISING FEUD.

2) What is your website address (ex: http:/site .com/; Site Name)?
We don't have an official site yet, but for more information about us, you can go here: http://www.facebook.com/RisingFeud

5) Requested size of your logo:
High resolution. It will be needed for posters, t-shirts etc.

6) Do you have any images/photos that can be used for the logo? (must be copyright free)
Unfortunately we do not have any images for this logo that are not already copyrighted.
What we have thought of is this:
A picture like the one here - http://juggernaught9900.deviantart.com/art/Rule-of-One-Liberty-205739712?q=favby:tineswari/1295635&qo=7
A battlefield or something similar, could be an emty field. In it, a kneeling man holding a torn and dirty white flag. The flag pole is in the ground.
The man kneeling on one knee (left knee), left hand holding the flag, right hand on the earth, in a pose like he is begining to rise up from the ground. The man is sitting with his back to us.
We do not feel the need for great detail, the man could me more featureless and nothing very detailed. We don't want the focus on the kneeling man, he should be in teh backround just like everything else. If it is a battlefield, the battle and all the action should be somehwere far away, in the backround. Just like in the picture from the above link.
And the flag to be positioned between Rising and Feud. We have attached an example of this made by a more amature hand . Nothing written on the flag.
As for the colors used, we like the ones fromt he pictures in the obeve link.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alternatively, if what we request above is too time consuming, overly complicated, we would settle for a simple logo, maybe something with just the RF letters, sylized and in a shape (rounded maybe), or with the full words Rising Feud but with something that represents our name and our style of music. As an example of a logo we like very much: http://www.4arte.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/gtgm.jpg. Unfotunately we do not have many ideeas for this...

7) What logo styles do you like (text only, image only, text and image, etc.)?
Image and Text

8) What colors do you want to see in your logo?
Red but not something bright, black. Maybe some more white outlines so that the text can be set on any backround color and be eligible.

10) Describe the target audience for your logo
Rock fans but not limited to this.

11) What are the top 3 things you would like to communicate through your logo?
This will help the designer know how to design your logo and to what effect.
(e.g could be targeted to attract new businesses, gamers, newly weds, children,
builders etc etc)

12) Where will your logo be used (print, website, etc.)?
Posters, t-shirts, hats, stickers, wallpapers.

14) Finally we need is there a style font you prefer, please let us know.
We've attached a picture of a font we would like, The only thing we would request is to remove the vines and leaves from this font. The rest of the stylizing is up to you.


Thanks in advance guys, hope to hear from you soon.
